The package does not install under Windows: see http://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-windows-ix86/DPpackage-00check.html
The maisntainer has been informed (probably many times via the automated notification system). With 1700 packages, the volunteers have no time to spend correcting packages for non-responsive maintainers (we do quite a lot for responsive ones).
The posting guide suggested you contact him first: did you get a response?

Dear R users, Thanks in advance. I am Deb, Statistician at NSW Department of Commerce, Sydney. I am using R 2.8.1 on Windows XP. This has reference to the package ???DPpackage???. The binary version is available on Mac OS, but I am using Windows XP. May I request you to assist me in the followings: How can I prepare Windows binary of DPpackage from source?
Follow the rw-FAQ, set yourself up to compile source packages, try this one, find the errors, correct them, use the package you compiled.
2. Is there any possibility to have a copy of Windows binary of DPpackage in the near future in the site http://www.cran.r-project.org/?
Only if the maintainer submits a corrected version.
Once again, thank you very much for the time you have given. I am looking forward for your reply. Regards, Debabrata Midya (Deb) NSW Department of Commerce Government Procurement Management Level 11 McKell Building 2-24 Rawson Place Sydney NSW 2000 Australia
