I need to clarify that statement: http://homepage.univie.ac.at/erich.neuwirth/php/rcomwiki/doku.php?id=wiki:how_to_install rcom is placed on CRAN but authored by the people who distribute RExcel, so technically it's not a commercial product itself but it is made available to support a commercial product. You will notice in its requirements statconnDCOM: And it's wiki says rcom does not comply with CRAN open source requirements anymore: http://homepage.univie.ac.at/erich.neuwirth/php/rcomwiki/doku.php?id=start -- David. > > (That is also a rather old version of R and would have gotten the advice to > update before further comments were offered if the above sentence were not > applicable.) > > Since the error message says the packages are nota available for R 2.15.1 I > would go to the author's website and see what versions those packages are > available for.
