Hi all,
I'm having problems installing plotrix. I tried installing it through
install.packages, and from the unix command line, but each time it seems to
stall when it is installing the help indices.
has anyone had this same problem, is this package still maintained ?
any help?
thanks
install.packages("plotrix")
I also tried using the source package
R CMD INSTALL plotrix_3.2-3.tar.gz
both of them seemed to stall at installing help indices.
I cancelled after about 45 minutes of waiting.
I tried to load the library incase the functions were loaded. But
library(plotrix)
Error in library(plotrix) : there is no package called 'plotrix'
Any knowledge about the status of this package or such errors would be
great.
Hi Alison,
I have installed the latest version both at home (Fedora 14) and work
(Windows XP). You seem to be using Windows, and when I install at work,
I manually unzip the package (don't ask - IT stuff). Have you tried
unzipping the package to the local R library?
Jim
