trouble loading a package. - R-SIG-Mac

Mon, Dec 3, 2007 5:24 AM #

Hi all,

I'm trying to load the package vars for a time series analysis I'm 
conducting.  I'm getting the following message


The downloaded packages are in
    
/var/folders/Iz/Izj5LjjmFQi4z+DYYp7e7E+++TI/-Tmp-//RtmpBKmvco/downloaded_packages
Loading required package: MASS
Loading required package: strucchange
Loading required package: zoo
Error: package 'zoo' could not be loaded
In addition: Warning message:
In library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, lib.loc = 
lib.loc) :
  there is no package called 'zoo'
 >

When I go to the package manager and refresh, it appears but will not 
allow me to check it off to load.

Any thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

David

Asking it to install dependencies helped a bit, but then I get this

It tells you that you don't have the required package 'zoo' - try  
installing it, R is often right. (As a tip, it is usually a good
