Subject: Howto compile chemometrics package from source
In-Reply-To: <1285615826.14951.8.camel@dell>
Dear Jose,
First of all let me explain why your first approach did not work:
> install.packages(chemometrics)
> Erro em install.packages(chemometrics) :
> objeto 'chemometrics' n?o encontrado
R does not know an object named "chemometrics" and therefore complains. You
should have typed
> install.packages("chemometrics")
Note the quotes around the name of the package.
I just tried this in my Ubuntu machine and it worked as expected without the
need of manually downloading anything. Of course the r-base-dev package needs
to be installed as you already know.
Kind regards,
Johannes
