Problems with loading the "mgcv" package

Hi guys,

Thanks for your reply (and apologies for a delay - it was night time in Europe).

I am running Windows XP, R version 2.9.0. I have just reinstalled spatstat with dependencies:
install.packages("spatstat", dependencies=TRUE)
Then I tried:
library(spatstat)
and I get the same error:
Loading required package: mgcv
Error in formatDL(nm, txt, indent = max(nchar(nm, "w")) + 3) :
...

then I tried to re-install the mgcv package but this gives me an error:
Warning: cannot remove prior installation of package 'mgcv'
*this is version 1.5-5

When I look under my \library\mgcv\

I can still see a dll file which can not be removed.

Maybe there is a problem that I am using a customized Rprofile? My Rprofile is available at:

Thanx!

Hi Tom,

I can load sptastat and mgcv without problem (see below).

Could you please send us information about your environment?

Cheers,

Hi,

I am having problems with loading the mgcv package, which is used by
the spatstat package. I did not have similar problems with the
latest version of the spatstat, so I imagine that the problem could
lay with the mgcv package (new parameters).

library(spatstat)
Loading required package: mgcv
Error in formatDL(nm, txt, indent = max(nchar(nm, "w")) + 3) :
  incorrect values of 'indent' and 'width'
Error : .onAttach failed in 'attachNamespace'
Error: package 'mgcv' could not be loaded

How could we fix this?

thanks,
