Thanks. Since quantstrat showed a Last change date of only 6 days ago and a
Build status of "Current", I blithely assumed that the command that is shown
for installing it would work:
install.packages("quantstrat", repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org";)
Installing package into ‘/Users/ihf/Library/R/3.0/library’
(as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://R-Forge.R-project.org/bin/macosx/contrib/3.0
package ‘quantstrat’ is available as a source package but not as a binary
Warning message:
package ‘quantstrat’ is not available (for R version 3.0.1)
Based on the posting you referred to on stackoverflow, I need to download the
SVN version and then see if I can build it. Although, I presume that if it were
that simple, why would the version crated a week ago not work?
