Dear R-Devel,

I've just tried to compile the fresh R-devel and found that the
install of package Matrix failed:

---------------------------------------------
** help
*** installing help indices
** building package indices ...
Error in require(Matrix, save = FALSE) :
unused argument(s) (save = FALSE)
ERROR: installing package indices failed
---------------------------------------------


Have you got the Matrix package from the appropriate 2.12/recommended
repository or installed via

make rsync-recommended
make recommended

Are those the commands that should now be used?  My script is
essentially doing:

        svn up
        tools/rsync-recommended
        make
        make check FORCE=FORCE

Running the script now, I experience the same problem as Thomas.  But I
note that Thomas did not state exactly what he is compiling.  My 'svn
up' updates the version checked out from:
        https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk
which I think of as R-devel.
Now after the svn up the file VERSION in the source directory says:
        2.13.0 Under development (unstable)
The SVN-REVISION file in my build directory says:
        Revision: 52938
        Last Changed Date: 2010-09-17
And I have Matrix_0.999375-44.tar.gz in src/library/Recommended of my
source directory.

As you refer to 2.12/recommended, you and Thomas might talk about
different versions when talking about R-devel.


Indeed, I referred to R-prerelease (alpha / to be R-2.12.0 in October) rather than R-devel (perhaps to be R-2.13.0 next April or so).

Uwe


Cheers,

        Berwin
