I think many people like to help, but we cannot:
You say you are under R-2.14.0 and whn you R CMD INSTALL a package with
that
version of R, it does not have a NAMESPACE in the end?
Then
- your R installation is broken or
- you are looking into a library where you have old versios of the
packages
or
- you belive you are using R-2.14.0 but you are actually using an
older
version.
This is even reproduced on CRAN. All platforms work except one:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_sqldf.html
No, that one is completely unrelated (and already solved, but not yet
synced
to CRAN master) to the original question you have removed in your reply.
OK. One would have thought that the checks on CRAN would be
consistent with the package pages which link to them.
I only see consistent information on that page.
If you go to:
http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/sqldf/index.html
then the tar.gz file was created using R-2.14.0 but if you then click
on the check results link on the same page it takes you to this:
Yes. the tar.gz was created with R-2.14.0.
http://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_sqldf.html
On the last link on that page it says ERROR and if click on that it
takes you to the output of the check which reveals that it was run
with R 2.13.2.
Yes, ince it is checked with different flavors of R, R-oldrelease,
R-release, R-devel. See the first column!
A source package can be created with an version of R and checked under
another version. There is onlyone source package on CRAN, but - just as
an exmaple - binaries for R-2.13.x and R-2.14.x. Of course, the checks
are applied with the versions stated on the check page. I think you
haven't got the whole point of checking with different versions of R.
The Version column on check_results_sqldf.html page refers to the
package's version, not the R version. To get the R version you must
know to click on each link.
No, no, no, no! See the first column!
It definitely states if R-olrelease, R-release, R-pacthed or R-devel is
used!
Uwe
If its feasible in terms of effort and run time to add the R version
used in a column on the check_results_sqldf.html page then that would
make the summary page more useful since it would be immediately
apparent not only what version of the package is being used but also
what version of R is being used in each case.
