Hi all,

I have a package that is specific to a task I was repetitively using a
few years ago.
I now needed to run it again with new data.

However I am told it was built with an older version or R and will not
work.
How can I tweak the package so it will run on 11.1?


You probably mean R-2.11.1?


It was a one-off product and has not been maintained.
Is there a way to "unpackage" it and repackage it to work?

Well, take the source package, run
  tar xfz packagename_version.tar.gz
and you have the sources that you can modify and repackage and reinstall afterwards.

See the manual "Writing R Extensions" fir detaiks.

Best,
Uwe Ligges



I tried just changing the date and R version in the DESCRIPTION file but
that did not help.

Tnx

Bruce
