Hi there,
Is there a binary-file installation of R-1.2.3 for Caldera Linux?
I have Caldera  Linux 2.3.  The linux binary installation files at
CRAN seems to be for Red Hat Linux only.  Is there a way to make
the Red Hat linux binary work for Caldera linux? I have tried and
has no success so far.
Thanks.
Ming

try to install the .deb files in the CRAN/bin/linux/debian directory.

Does Caldera have apt - the advanced package tool?  If so you can
follow the instructions in the README file in that directory to allow
seamless updates over the web.

I thought Corel was Debian and Caldera was RedHat...?
