-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora Update Notification FEDORA-2011-2456 2011-03-02 01:28:29 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : R Product : Fedora 13 Version : 2.12.2 Release : 1.fc13 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 2.12.2. A full list of changes in this release is here: http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/NEWS Notably, it fixes this issue: Complex arithmetic (notably z^n for complex z and integer n) gave incorrect results since R 2.10.0 on platforms without C99 complex support. This and some lesser issues in trignometric functions have been corrected. Such platforms were rare (we know of Cygwin and FreeBSD). However, because of new compiler optimizations in the way complex arguments are handled, the same code was selected on x86_64 Linux with gcc 4.5.x at the default -O2 optimization (but not at -O). In addition, rpy and rkward were rebuilt to use the new R. No other changes were made to these packages. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ChangeLog: * Sun Feb 27 2011 Tom Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.12.2-1 - update to 2.12.2 * Mon Feb 7 2011 Fedora Release Engineering <[email protected]> - 2.12.1-2 - Rebuilt for https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Fedora_15_Mass_Rebuild * Fri Dec 17 2010 Tom Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.12.1-1 - update to 2.12.1 * Wed Oct 20 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.12.0-1 - update to 2.12.0 * Wed Jul 7 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-4 - include COPYING in libRmath package * Wed Jun 30 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-3 - move libRmath static lib into libRmath-static subpackage * Thu Jun 3 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-2 - overload R_LIBS_SITE instead of R_LIBS * Tue Jun 1 2010 Tom "spot" Callaway <[email protected]> - 2.11.1-1 - update to 2.11.1 -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- This update can be installed with the "yum" update program.
