Thank you! I had not used tools/rsync-recommended -- I just coped the rsync command from the R FAQ (i.e., rsync -rC --delete rsync.R-project.org::r-devel R).
The tools/rsync-recommended command downloaded the various recommended packages. However, to get this I had to get the latest version of the tools (out of <http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/tools.zip>http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/tools.zip), and after changing my path to use it I get the dreaded "You have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on your system" error, even though I have set my path so that I have only one copy of cygwin1.dll in my path (as far as I can see): $ type -a cygwin1.dll cygwin1.dll is /cygdrive/c/R/tools/cygwin1.dll $ ls c:\R\tools\ls.exe: *** fhandler size version mismatch detected - 0x70/0x6C. You have multiple copies of cygwin1.dll on your system. Search for cygwin1.dll using the Windows Start->Find/Search facility and delete all but the most recent version. The most recent version *should* reside in x:\cygwin\bin, where 'x' is the drive on which you have installed the cygwin distribution. # this is the path I'm had for the commands above -- this command run with a different PATH so that it can run $ echo $RPATH | tr ':' '\012' . /cygdrive/c/R/tools /cygdrive/c/MinGW/bin //jacona/home/tplate/depot/Spluslibs/scripts //jacona/home/tplate/scripts //jacona/home/data/bin /cygdrive/c/texmf/miktex/bin /cygdrive/c/Perl/bin /cygdrive/c/jdk1.3/bin /cygdrive/c/tap/scripts /cygdrive/c/gnu/gnuplot /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32 /cygdrive/c/WINNT /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Insightful/splus61/cmd /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Insightful/splus61net/server/cmd /cygdrive/c/Program Files/QAI/MarketQA/Bin /cygdrive/e/marketqa/Bin /cygdrive/c/marketqa/Bin /cygdrive/c/PVSW/Bin /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/VC98/Bin /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/Common/MSDev98/Bin /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32 /cygdrive/c/WINNT /cygdrive/c/WINNT/system32/WBEM /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Perforce /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Html Help Workshop /cygdrive/c/gstools/gs/gs7.03/bin /cygdrive/c/R/rw1080/bin . (I'm running under Windows 2000). Any suggestions on how to get things working again are much appreciated. -- Tony Plate At Thursday 02:33 PM 3/4/2004, Prof Brian Ripley wrote: >You need the version in src/contrib/1.9.0/Recommended on cran (and you do >for several other recommended packages). > >tools/rsync-recommended should get you that version: is that how you are >doing it? > >As a check, MASS comes from VR version 7.2-0 in R-devel. > >On Thu, 4 Mar 2004, A.J.
