Hello,
thanks a lot for the replies. I've installed the binary for R-2.8.x
available at:
http://www.statistik.uni-dortmund.de/~ligges/Rstem_0.3-1.zip
However, when I try using some of the functions, such as
getStemLanguages() or wordStem(), I get:
Have you loaded the package via
library("Rstem") ?
It works for me.
getStemLanguages()
Error: could not find function "getStemLanguages"
or
words = c("sing", "singing", "singer")
wordStem(words, language = "english")
Error: could not find function "wordStem"
Why do I get this? Haven't I installed the package correctly? I've
done this using the R Gui: "Packages" --> "Install package(s) from
local zip files ...", have chosen the .zip file, which I've downloaded
from the URL you sent me, and I got:
utils:::menuInstallLocal()
package 'Rstem' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
updating HTML package descriptions
Do I need to do something else? I receive the same results after
installing (in this way) the the binary for R-2.7.x.

I'm sorry, I didn't understand what you mean by "CRAN extras". I have
googled and found this page with binaries checks for Windows, but
there is no Rstem package there, and it is just a "check" (no files
which I could download):
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/checkSummaryWin.html
No, Brian meant the CRAN extras repository he maintains in Oxford. And
since it is a default repository for R binary packages for Windows, now also
install.packages("Rstem")
should work for you.
Anyway, you always need to load the package before using it.

I don't understand the last message either: the build environment has
problems.
a) There seem to be no Windows binaries on Omegahat for R > 2.7.
b) A few are available from CRAN extras (one of the default
repositories on Window), and I've added Rstem. So please try again
now.

Hello,
I am trying to install the Rstem package, but I have problems. I am
using Windows XP and the 2.8.1 version of R. I have read the "Add-on
packages" chapter of the "R Installation and Administration" manual,
and also have tried several things, which worked for other people on
the mailing list having faced the same problem
(http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/06/03/22889.html).
I paste below the things, which I have tried and the results. I don't
understand what the message "installation of package 'Rstem' had
non-zero exit status" mean, which I get on my last try below. Could
anyone advise me what should I do? Thank you.
p.s. I have successfully installed the lsa package, which depends on
the Rstem package.
Only for some restricted value of 'success'.
