I have encountered two anomalies in version 1.8.0 that I had not observed in version 1.7.0: When using the menu Packages -> Update Packages from CRAN, The console repeats the message twice (example below) > update.packages() trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/1.8/PACKAGES' Content type `text/plain; charset=iso-8859-1' length 12608 bytes opened URL downloaded 12Kb lattice : Version 0.8-3 in C:/Program Files/R/rw1080/library Version 0.8-7 on CRAN Update (y/N)? y mgcv : Version 0.9-3.1 in C:/Program Files/R/rw1080/library Version 0.9-5 on CRAN Update (y/N)? y lattice : Version 0.8-3 in C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw1080/library Version 0.8-7 on CRAN Update (y/N)? y mgcv : Version 0.9-3.1 in C:/PROGRA~1/R/rw1080/library Version 0.9-5 on CRAN Update (y/N)? y trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/1.8/lattice_0.8-7.zip' Content type `application/zip' length 438509 bytes opened URL downloaded 428Kb trying URL `http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/1.8/mgcv_0.9-5.zip' Content type `application/zip' length 477360 bytes opened URL downloaded 466Kb and indicates an error message (example below) package lattice lattice successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Error in file(file, "r") : unable to open connection In addition: Warning messages: 1: the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used in: if (!file.exists(md5file)) return(NA) 2: the condition has length > 1 and only the first element will be used in: if (file == "") file <- stdin() else { 3: only first element of `description' argument used 4: cannot open file `lattice/DESCRIPTION' The packages all work properly. Message 4 appears with many updates. When using help.start() to search for information, the references also appear twice. The example below uses lrm.fit from the Design package.
