fBasics_190.10051.zip is a COMPILED version of the package, not
a source as you claim to be!
It works with no problems; well, at least under Linux.

Hello all:
On my linux platform, I ran the commands,
mkdir fBasics
unzip fBasics.zip -d fBasics
rm fBasics/src/*.o
R CMD check fBasics
That was 3 minutes. Next, I copied the files contained in
fBasics.Rcheck/fBasics to the R library.
library(fBasics)
fBasics:Markets, Basic Statistics, Date
Here is what I get:
R : Copyright 2004, The R Foundation for Statistical Computing
Version 1.9.0 (2004-04-12), ISBN 3-900051-00-3

Yes, I agree with Ajay Shah's comments. The Rmetrics website makes a
virtue of open source yet the Rmetrics people do not make available
their package for the open source platform, Linux.

It wouldn't be difficult to create a source tarball and submit it to them
