It would appear that the package was archived last year due to a failure to abide by CRAN policies with respect to Java sources: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/colbycol/index.html There are older versions of the package source tarballs in the linked archive that may or may not work. It looks like the package has not been updated in over a year, so there may be associated issues and you may be better off contacting the package maintainer (http://colbycol.r-forge.r-project.org) to see where they stand on package updates. Presumably the CRAN maintainers have already attempted that without success or without a commitment to keep the package compliant with CRAN policies, hence the archiving. You might want to look at the HPC CRAN task view to see if there are any alternatives that would work for you: http://cran.r-project.org/web/views/HighPerformanceComputing.html Regards, Marc Schwartz ______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list -- To UNSUBSCRIBE and more, see https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
