All package installation happens via install.packages(), at least eventually. If you look at the help page for that, it has always said that it does not (as it cannot easily, in general!!) look at dependencies when you do not install from a repository. This question would clearly have belonged to R-help, not R-devel. I'm CC ing to the help list and am asking all follow-ups to go *only* to R-help, please.

[Rd] boxplot with formula involving two-factor levels
Hi,
I noticed two seemingly equivalent call to boxplot will give different plots
(in the way how the combined factor levels are arranged on the x-axis):
x = factor(rep(c("a", "b", "c"), each=2));
y = rep(factor(c("one", "two")), each=3);
r = 3;
n = r * 6;
x = rep(x, 3);
y = rep(y, 3);
z = rnorm(n);
par(mfrow=c(2,1));
## The following two seeming equivalent calls to boxplot give different results
boxplot(z~x:y);
f = x:y;
boxplot(z~f);
This is puzzling to me. Is this normal?
Thanks!
Best,
Yanming

You can build repositories, both local / private and visible / public, using the drat package: http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com/code/drat.html, also on CRAN.

Normal, but a little odd. The root cause is the difference between x:y and
interaction(x,y), documented on the help page for the latter.
