After accusing someone of typing 'install.packages("weather")' instead of 'install.packages("webmaps")', I discovered that R-forge really is currently returning the wrong source tarball for packages after 'Repitools' in the alphabet.
The data returned from available.package in install.packages goes out of sync at 'Repitools': RemoteREngine "RemoteREngine_0.0-8.tar.gz" RemoteSensing "RemoteSensing_0.2-5.tar.gz" Repitools "RepitoolsExamples_1.01.tar.gz" Rglpk "Repitools_0.0.107.tar.gz" Ripop "Rglpk_0.3-2.tar.gz" Rllvm "Ripop_0.1.tar.gz" RlpSolveAPI "Rllvm_0.1.tar.gz" There's a report on the R-forge forum, but I thought I'd post this here in case anyone else is staring at the screen in bewilderment. I'm hypothesizing it's in the way the PACKAGES file is being constructed, but haven't tested that hypothesis yet - I'm sure the R-forge admins will fix this.
