patch download?
2 messages · Poggio, John, Jeff Newmiller
That is silly. The primary difference is that certain bugfix patches have been applied. A side-effect of this "first patched" status is that unintentional bugs may have been introduced, so unless you have already encountered a bug that was patched there then you are likely better off sticking with the standard release. That said, I have had no qualms about using a patched version when I encountered a bug that got fixed.

Is the primary difference between the current version download (e.g., 2.15.1) and the "patched" download of these R files that the patched files have NOT been verified? Please confirm and thanks! [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
