I have tried to uninstall R-2.4.1 and reinstall it but I still get the same
error message. I have also tried reinstalling both mingw and perl, both with
no effect.
My DESCRIPTION file:
Package: copulaGOF
Type: Package
Title: Copula simulation, estimation and goodness-of-fit
Version: 1.5
Date: 2006-12-15
Author: Daniel Berg, Henrik Bakken (Norwegian Computing Center)
Depends: adapt, copula, fBasics, mnormt, mvtnorm, scatterplot3d, sn
Maintainer: Daniel Berg <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
URL: www.danielberg.no
Description: Functions for copula simulation, estimation and goodness-of-fit
testing. Includes functions for simulating and estimating higher dimensional
distributions.
License: GPL Version 2 or later, GSL-1.6
and the error message read:
$ Rcmd build --binary copulaGOF
* checking for file 'copulaGOF/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* preparing 'copulaGOF' :
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... ERROR
During startup - Warning messages:
' in: library(package, lib.loc = lib.loc, character.only = TRUE, logical =
TRUE,
in options("defaultPackages") was not found
I don't have access to binaries of older versions of R now but will try with
older version after the holidays to see if this has an effect.
Regards,
Daniel
