-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2009-9024 2009-08-27 00:48:05 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : R Product : Fedora 10 Version : 2.9.2 Release : 1.fc10 URL : http://www.r-project.org Summary : A language for data analysis and graphics Description : This is a metapackage that provides both core R userspace and all R development components. R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. R is similar to the award-winning S system, which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering, ...). R is designed as a true computer language with control-flow constructions for iteration and alternation, and it allows users to add additional functionality by defining new functions. For computationally intensive tasks, C, C++ and Fortran code can be linked and called at run time. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information: Update to R 2.9.2 (and corresponding rpy rebuilds). BUG FIXES - parse_Rd() still did not handle source reference encodings properly. - The C utility function PrintValue no longer attempts to print attributes for CHARSXPs as those attributes are used internally for the CHARSXP cache. This fixes a segfault when calling it on a CHARSXP from C code. - PDF graphics output was producing two instances of anything drawn with the symbol font face. (Report from Baptiste Auguie.) - length(x) <- newval and grep() could cause memory corruption. (PR#13837) - If model.matrix() was given too large a model, it could crash R. (PR#13838, fix found by Olaf Mersmann.) - gzcon() (used by load()) would re-open an open connection, leaking a file descriptor each time. (PR#13841) - The checks for inconsistent inheritance reported by setClass() now detect inconsistent superclasses and give better warning messages. - print.anova() failed to recognize the column labelled P(>|Chi|) from a Poisson/binomial GLM anova as a p-value column in order to format it appropriately (and as a consequence it gave no significance stars). - A missing PROTECT caused rare segfaults during calls to load(). (PR#13880, fix found by Bill Dunlap.) - gsub() in a non-UTF-8 locale with a marked UTF-8 input could in rare circumstances overrun a buffer and so segfault. - R CMD Rdconv --version was not working correctly. - Missing PROTECTs in nlm() caused "random" errors. (PR#13381 by Adam D.I. Kramer, analysis and suggested fix by Bill Dunlap.) - Some extreme cases of pbeta(log.p = TRUE) are more accurate (finite values < -700 rather than -Inf). (PR#13786) - pbeta() now reports on more cases where the asymptotic expansions lose accuracy (the underlying TOMS708 C code was ignoring some of these, including the PR#13786 example). - new.env(hash = TRUE, size = NA) now works the way it has been documented to for a long time. - tcltk::tk_choose.files(multi = TRUE) produces better-formatted output with filenames containing spaces. (PR#13875) - R CMD check --use-valgrind did not run valgrind on the package tests. - The tclvalue() and the print() and as.xxx methods for class "tclObj" crashed R with an invalid object -- seen with an object saved from an earlier session. - R CMD BATCH garbled options -d <debugger> (useful for valgrind, although --debugger=valgrind always worked) - INSTALL with LazyData and Encoding declared in DESCRIPTION might have left options("encoding") set for the rest of the package installation. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Mon Aug 24 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.9.2-1 - Update to 2.9.2 * Fri Jul 24 2009 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 2.9.1-3 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_12_Mass_Rebuild * Fri Jul 10 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.9.1-2 - don't try to make the PDFs in rawhide/i586 * Thu Jul 9 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.9.1-1 - update to 2.9.1 - fix versioned provides * Mon Apr 20 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.9.0-2 - properly Provide/Obsolete R-Matrix * Fri Apr 17 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.9.0-1 - update to 2.9.0, change vim dep to vi * Tue Apr 7 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-9 - drop profile.d scripts, they broke more than they fixed - minimize hard-coded Requires based on Martyn Plummer's analysis * Sat Mar 28 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-8 - fix profile scripts for situation where R_HOME is already defined (bugzilla 492706) * Tue Mar 24 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-7 - bump for new tag * Tue Mar 24 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-6 - add profile.d scripts to set R_HOME - rpmlint cleanups * Mon Mar 23 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-5 - add R-java and R-java-devel "dummy" packages, so that we can get java dependent R-modules to build/install * Wed Mar 4 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-4 - update post scriptlet (bz 477076) * Mon Feb 23 2009 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 2.8.1-3 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_11_Mass_Rebuild * Mon Jan 5 2009 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> 2.8.1-2 - add pango-devel to BuildRequires (thanks to Martyn Plummer and Peter Dalgaard) - fix libRmath requires to need V-R (thanks to Martyn Plummer) * Mon Dec 22 2008 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> 2.8.1-1 - update javareconf call in %post (bz 477076) - 2.8.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
