R-2.0.1 reinstall non-CRAN pkg

Have you checked where R is looking for that package (.libPaths()  
would tell
you), and whether that's where you've installed it?

HTH,

From: Anthony Westerling


I am trying to upgrade to R-2.0.1 from R-1.9 on a Mac running
OS X 10.3.

I have some simple packages I wrote myself that have to be
reinstalled
to be recognized as valid packages.  I have been using them
for a while
on earlier versions of R, so didn't expect to have any problems.

I am probably going about this the wrong way?  I simply used

R CMD build mypkgdir

and then

R CMD install mypkgdir.tar.gz

the package installs without any error messages.

however, library(mypkgname) still generates spiteful

	Error in library(mypkgname) : 'mypkgname' is not a
valid package --
installed < 2.0.0?

messages.

My apologies if answers to this kind of question have already been
posted.  I have looked over the archived r-help threads for the last
couple of months.

Yes.  It is looking the correct directory.  Note that the package is  
installed without errors.  The problem is that, even after being newly  
reinstalled, it is still not recognized as a valid package for R-2.0

So it is not packaged correctly, and thinks it has been installed  
under R < 2.0.0.
Please check the DESCRIPTION file carefully and rebuild the package,  
after that installating is should work.
