The packages you require might not have been updated yet. You could contact the package admin.

That would not be the first option. Checking to see if your mirror is deficient by looking at another mirror would be the first option. You should also look at at the Package Checks page; http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_summary.html

There is a version of vegan on the mirror I am using and I have a relatively recent version of R 2.14.1 Patched (with a Mac). And there are no errors reported for current versions. So leave the package maintainer in peace, since he has been doing his job.

Subject: [R] problem installing packages

Hello,

I was using version 2.13.2 and I have just downloaded the latest version 2.14.1. However, I'm trying to install the packages I was using and when I look for them in the packages list, I can“t find many in the CRAN binaries (e.g. "vegan"). I do find them in the CRAN sources but the installation fails. I tried downloading the version 2.14.0 and I had the same problem. I re-installed the old version, and now it works again. Is this a problem with 2.14?
Thank you for your help.
Natalia Norden
