Peter Dalgaard, R-devel team, et al., Hi, my name is Andre Mikulec.
I am an `common` committer to Postgres PL/R . . . https://github.com/postgres-plr/plr/commits?author=AndreMikulec https://github.com/postgres-plr/plr `PL/R - PostgreSQL support for R as a procedural language (PL)` However, now and different from the past, the `windows/base/old` R 4.2.2 download location URL link now, redirects to the wrong `R 4.2.1` location. Historically, Previous and Current(still called `old`) Windows versions of R have been stored here (below) and the current(old) version of R would have been 4.2.2. and would have pointed to R 4.2.2. https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/ ``` In this directory (and its URL redirect (->)): R 4.2.2 (October, 2022) -> https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/4.2.1 (NEED 4.2.2) R 4.2.1 (June, 2022) -> https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/4.2.1/ ``` So, something has changed `R 4.2.2 (October, 2022)` now redirects to `base/old/4.2.1`. Now and in the past, Appveyor builds of PL/R rely a specific version of R in an exact location: https://github.com/postgres-plr/plr/blob/4ac054e61c62f72a9cd3a38f66476d037b3e27a5/appveyor.yml#L25 ``` - pg: REL_15_0 PlatformToolset: v141 configuration: Release APPVEYOR_BUILD_WORKER_IMAGE: Visual Studio 2017 rversion: 4.2.1 ``` Notice (above and) below the variable `rversion: 4.2.1` and the hard coded location `base/old/%rversion%/R-%rversion%-win.exe`. https://github.com/postgres-plr/plr/blob/4ac054e61c62f72a9cd3a38f66476d037b3e27a5/appveyor.yml#L108 ``` - if not exist R-%rversion%-win.exe appveyor downloadfile https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/%rversion%/R-%rversion%-win.exe ``` E.g. the most recent PL/R build (a month ago) using R 4.2.1 `PL/R - PostgreSQL support for R as a procedural language (PL)` build: https://ci.appveyor.com/project/davecramer/plr-daun5/build/job/7lqs9pkgartjhxwt?fullLog=true#L15 ``` Cache 'R-4.2.1-win.exe' - Restored Running Install scripts if not exist R-%rversion%-win.exe appveyor downloadfile https://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/base/old/%rversion%/R-%rversion%-win.exe R-%rversion%-win.exe /VERYSILENT ``` Now, where may One find a `specific version of R in an exact location`? Please help.
