Hi Lars, A mystery, but for the bodgy characters in your error message. Perhaps there is a problem with R trying to read a different character set from that used in the package. Jim On Sat, Apr 30, 2016 at 8:22 PM, Lars Bishop <lars52r at gmail.com <javascript:;>> wrote:

** package ?bitops? successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Error in readRDS(pfile) : error reading from connection
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ?bitops?
I?ve also tried from the shell (after downloading the package source)
$ R CMD INSTALL bitops_1.0-6.tar.gz
ERROR: cannot extract package from bitops_1.0-6.tar.gz
Thank you,
Lars.
