R-1.2.3 & MASS

Hi all

I just got my first Linux box, and I've installed successfully R by
downloading the "latest" version from the CRAN site, which is R-1.2.3

I would love to keep on using Prof. Ripley's code, esp. the nnet library,
as I was doing on both a unix machine and a Windows in the past.

When I get to the
                 R CMD INSTALL VR_6.2-6.tar.gz 
part, though, the compilation fails because - of course- I'm not using 
R 1.3.0.

Is there any way around it? Is there an R 1.3.0 version for Linux (Debian)
or an older source code for the packages that can compile under R-1.2.3?
I tried the old versions listed on the CRAN site, but they failed to
compile as well, this time crying out for undefined references...

thanks in advance

claudia

You need VR_6.2-5.tar.gz, which is on

http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/R/

and will be in Archive on CRAN.

Your timing is unlucky -- you just caught the changeover from 1.2.3 to
1.3.0.

You can get R1.3.0 from the developer site

ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.3.0.tgz
ftp://cvs.r-project.org/pub/CRAN/src/base/R-1.3.0-recommended.tgz

or wait a day or so until CRAN synchronises
