Why do you post more than once?
I have answered your former (almost) identical message minutes ago.

When trying to update (various) packages using update.packages() I get the
following error message for various packages
package 'fBasics' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked Error in
unpackPkg(foundpkgs[okp, 2L], foundpkgs[okp, 1L], lib) :
malformed bundle DESCRIPTION file, no Contains field
This happens with other packages besides fBasics (Matrix, as well as others)
and I have switched mirrors and the same thing occurs.
Any suggestions?
