FYI, I'm sure the following is a temporary issue, but in case it slips through, I want to raise it here. On Windows 7 64-bit, running Rcmd check on R devel gives:
* using R version 2.13.0 Under development (unstable) (2011-02-11 r54330) * using platform: x86_64-pc-mingw32 (64-bit) * using session charset: ISO8859-1 * checking for file 'aroma.core/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * this is package 'aroma.core' version '1.9.4' * checking package dependencies ... OK * checking if this is a source package ... OK * checking for executable files ... OK * checking whether package 'aroma.core' can be installed ... OK * checking installed package size ...Error in system2("du", , TRUE, TRUE) : '"du"' not found Execution halted That is, the 'du' (disk usage) executable is missing. I've verified that installing the latest Rtools [http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/Rtools212.exe] does not solve it (=it does not contain 'du'). BTW, is there a way to know when Rtools have been updated relative to the version you already have installed? /Henrik PS. Placing the 'du.exe' executable of UnxTools (http://sourceforge.net/projects/unxutils/) in the bin/ directory of Rtools (e.g. C:/Rtools/bin/) provides a workaround. > sessionInfo() R version 2.13.0 Under development (unstable) (2011-02-11 r54330) Platform: x86_64-pc-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_United States.1252 [2] LC_CTYPE=English_United States.1252 [3] LC_MONETARY=English_United States.1252 [4] LC_NUMERIC=C [5] LC_TIME=English_United States.1252 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
