Hi Mr. Ligges,

The firewall in my company blocks all binary files. Foreign is downloaded
in "wb" mode. Thus I have no chance to get it. The first fresh
installation was done from an external drive. As packrat is also
downloading the binaries instead of the source my download will always
fail.
My sessionInfo() is

Betreff: Re: [R] packrat: Failed to download current version of
foreign(0.8-67)
foreign is a recommended package that is already part of your R
installation. and there shoudl not be a problem to install a recent
version of it.
What is the error message of you run
install.packages("foreign") from a new R session?
Best,
Uwe Ligges
