If you need a newer version of R for installing the latest version of plyr, perhaps another solution (as very new versions of R -2-11.0- will come out soonly ) , which needs 2 lines of bash!, might be to download an old version of plyr : wget \ http://cran.at.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/plyr/plyr_0.1.1.tar.gz and install it R CMD INSTALL plyr_0.1.1.tar.gz (and then reshape dependencies are satisfied, as there is no lower bound on plyr's versions: you can then use install.packages or what you like). Nota "\" denotes it is on the same line i bash scripting!!! Then, you wait one or two weeks and you get R-2.11.0 if you want. Have nice days.

De: Biau David <djmbiau at yahoo.fr> Objet: [R-sig-Debian] how to update r to lattest version on debian lenny? ?: "R-debian" <> Date: Lundi 29 mars 2010, 13h43 Hi all, how do you update R on Debian lenny? I have tried to re-install r-base after adding deb http://<favorite-cran-mirror>/bin/linux/debian lenny-cran/ to my backport lists but it keeps installing R 2.7.1. What should I be doing to get the lattest R release? I need it to install a package (plyr) Thanks, David. ? ? ? ??? [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
