install.packages(,type="source") broken on Windows
OK thanks. Just FYI the same thing happens with R version 2.5.0 devel (2006-09-07 r39185). Best, H.

On Windows, 'install.packages(,type="source")' displays the same output

Yes. The culprit is ------------------------------------------------------------------------ r39127 | urbaneks | 2006-09-05 20:45:00 +0200 (Tue, 05 Sep 2006) | 1 line Bugfix: install.packages ignored unnamed configure.args ------------------------------------------------------------------------ which forgets to check whether there are any args to name. (There is a generic issue in that available.packages has a configure.args argument which is passed on to --configure-args in the INSTALL script: The Windows INSTALL doesn't understand the argument since configure doesn't work on Windows. However, things should work when no such arguments are passed.)
