First for general info: Although I am listed as maintainer I am not maintaining this version currently. Thanks to the developers who offer this version and work on it. We will try to get a version on CRAN soon.

For your specific question:


Download the file and rename it to
BRugs_0.6-1.zip.
Then try again. R expects to get packages in the way they were created by R CMD INSTALL --build, not with a changed filename which happened to this version (with the added R12).

Best wishes,
Uwe Ligges

Hello, all. When I try to install the most recent BRugs package (the one
that uses version 3.1.2), found here:



http://www.openbugs.info/w/UserContributedCode



I get the following error:



utils:::menuInstallLocal()

Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection

In addition: Warning message:

In gzfile(file, "r") :

   cannot open compressed file 'BRugs_0.6-1R12/DESCRIPTION', probable
reason 'No such file or directory'



I got the same message on two different computers, and successfully
installed a different package from a .zip file right afterwards - so it
would seem as though I have the correct permissions. (A little Googling
also showed that some people have success when simply retrying to do the
install - no luck there, either.)



Any ideas on how to work around this? I really need that updated version
of BRugs!



Thanks,



Kyle
