Hello, I'm a new user to R, and I was trying to install "packfor" in my R console and I always run into an error. I tried to search, in in the forum, someone that already might have made the same question, but all I could find was a general information how to install libraries in R.
Pass through all that procedure (Package&Data->Package Installer->Local Source Package[because my library was in a folder in my computer]), I have a message that is "DONE", but then I do the command "library(packfor)" and I get an error message: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- WARNING: ignoring environment value of R_HOME * Installing *binary* package 'packfor' ... * DONE (packfor) > library(packfor) packfor: R Package for Forward Selection (Canoco Manual p.49) version 0.0-8Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared library '/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/library/packfor/libs/i386/packfor.so': dlopen(/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/library/packfor/libs/i386/packfor.so, 6): Library not loaded: /usr/local/lib/libgfortran.2.dylib Referenced from: /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.7/Resources/library/packfor/libs/i386/packfor.so Reason: image not found Error in library(packfor) : .First.lib failed for 'packfor' -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I have a mac where I installed R2.7.0, and I want to use the "packfor_0.0-8_for_R2.7.tar.gz". I already uninstalled R twice and installed it again, I already used another packfor file, from another person... I ran out of ideas so I would like a little bit of help. My R also presents an other error when it starts: ----------------------------------------------------- During startup - Warning messages: 1: Setting LC_CTYPE failed, using "C" 2: Setting LC_COLLATE failed, using "C" 3: Setting LC_TIME failed, using "C" 4: Setting LC_MESSAGES failed, using "C" WARNING: You're using a non-UTF8 locale, therefore only ASCII characters will work. Please read R for Mac OS X FAQ (see Help) section 9 and adjust your system preferences accordingly. ---------------------------------------------------------- I don't know if this is important to solve the issue, but anyway I already done other analysis (which means that I used other libraries) and I didn't have any problem. Besides the section 9 from the Help talks about version previous the one that I have (1.0.1, 2.0 and 2.1). Thanks in advance for any idea that you might have , Ju -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Packfor-library-problem-downloading-tp17406291p17406291.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
