Dear All, I want to check what packages depends on a given package. For example, glmnet depends on Matrix. I want get the names of all the packages that depend on Matrix on CRAN. Is there a way to do so? Thanks!
library(glmnet)
Loading required package: Matrix Loading required package: lattice

Hi: Here's one way, assuming Matrix (or whichever package you want to investigate) is installed on your system: u <- installed.packages() u['Matrix', 'Depends'] [1] "R (>= 2.10.0), stats, methods, utils, lattice" HTH, Dennis
Or, if it's not installed locally, use u <- available.packages() u['Matrix', 'Depends'] instead.
