Thanks, you solved it. For posterity, here's the extra info:
R Session.info(): R version 2.4.1 (2006-12-18) i686-redhat-linux-gnu locale:C attached base packages: [1] "stats" "graphics" "grDevices" "utils" "datasets" "methods" [7] "base" and #uname -a Linux stikir.com 2.6.9-023stab043.1-smp #1 SMP Mon Mar 5 16:35:19 MSK 2007 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux So, yes, it was strange that R.i386 was installed. I removed both and reinstalled R.x86_64 (2.5.1) using yum. Now tseries seems to have installed sucessfully, although it still threw many warnings.
