3.0.1 update and compiler package
Hi, Did you try: update.packages(installed.packages()[,1]) or install.packages(installed.packages()[,1]) This will reinstall the packages you have on your system and for which updates for 3.0.1 exist. In my experience, as recounted here earlier, update.packages() does not always work: it breaks because it fails to also recognize the need to update some dependencies. If reducing bandwidth is your concern, you can update the ones that did not update manually, but note that this is a long drawn process with one dependency leading to another in many cases. All this is from my experience of updating R 2.15.2 to R 3.0.0 and later R 3.0.1: of course YMMV. HTH, Ranjan On Tue, 4 Jun 2013 20:41:21 +1200 Christoph Knapp

Hi, reinstalling R did not help. It still will not update the same packages. I attached the terminal output. There were no errors while I was installing R again. I might have to remove all libraries and reinstall them all. Would you agree or do you think I should try something else first which is not as extreme.

Hi, How did you upgraded your version of R? From source or from a Linux package?
Actually the new R installation is just broken. It simply has to be reinstalled carefully (watch for errors). Best, Uwe Ligges

Hi, I recently updated to R 3.0.1. I'm running linux ubuntu 12.04. I realized that I have to update all the installed packages so I run > update.packages(checkBuilt=TRUE) as described here http://www.r-bloggers.com/r-3-0-0-is-released-whats-new-and-how-to-upgrade/ . The first thing it did was telling me that it will not update several packages. When it was finished I used the warnings function to have a look at what did not work. See the list below.

Now, if I try to install the compiler package it tells me.

Installing package into ?/home/christoph/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.0? (as ?lib? is unspecified) Warning message: package ?compiler? is not available (for R version 3.0.1) The last line also came up all the time when the packages were updated Doing a bit of research does not deliver much only that the compiler package was included into R at version 2.13.0 (http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/blog/2011/04/12/). Most of those packages which do not work any more are pretty important for some of my scripts and I would not even know what packages replace the packages above. Would anyone know how to fix this?
