I followed RNews 3/3 and used:

1. R CMD INSTALL package_version.tar.gz

and

2.options(CRAN="http://umfragen.sowi.uni-mainz.de/CRAN/";)
install.packages("pkg1". "pkg2")

Both approaches end up i.e.:

WARNING: invalid package 'pkg1.tar.gz'
ERROR: no packages specified

But there is no package `pkg1' on CRAN. Try a real name like

install.packages("tree")

Well, of cause I didn't want install pkg1 or pkg2, the precise commandline was:

1. R CMD INSTALL epitools_0.3-3.tar.gz

Have you downloaded the file first to the current directory?

and

2. install.packages("accuracy", "zoo", "abind")

The syntax is install.packages(c("accuracy", "zoo", "abind"))

[I did suggest an example you could have tried, deliberately with one package. I don't get the error message you said you got from your line.]
