Hi, I wanted to install the gWidgets package and ran the following code:
------------------------------------------ > install.packages("gWidgets") trying URL 'http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/languages/R/CRAN/bin/windows/contrib/2.7/gWidgets_0.0-30.zip' Content type 'application/zip' length 1354268 bytes (1.3 Mb) opened URL downloaded 1.3 Mb package 'gWidgets' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked The downloaded packages are in C:\Documents and Settings\ts\Local Settings\Temp\Rtmpx7Ow1V\downloaded_packages updating HTML package descriptions > library(gWidgets) Error in fun(...) : *** gWidgets requires a toolkit implementation to be installed, for instance gWidgetsRGtk2, gWidgetstcltk, or gWidgetsrJava*** . Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'gWidgets' Error: package/namespace load failed for 'gWidgets' > -------------------------------------------------- I can't understand why I'm gettting the error. Earlier today, a very similar thing happened with a bioconductor package that I was trying to load.
