Dear Prof. Ripley
Many thanks. rtools 2.15 did the job.
One note if I may - In the rtools site one reads
rtools215.exe - r>2.14.1 to R 2.15.x No
rtoosl214.exe - r 2.13.x or R.2.14.x yes
which can mislead the reader. 2.14.x could mean 2.14.2
But as Prof Ripley told you, you *can* use rtools214 in 2.14.2: it's
just not the default, you'll need to edit a MkRules.local file.

"No" could mean lots of things, but in the context where that one
appeared, I don't see "not ready for prime time" as a reasonable
interpretation. The reason the tools change is because bugs get fixed,
libraries get upgraded, etc. The "frozen" ones contain all the bugs
that were present when they were frozen. The unfrozen ones are maintained.
