The default works -- you have set options("repos") somewhere.
You can use
options(repos=c(CRAN="http://cran.<insert>.r-project.org"))
*However*, I noticed last night that the 2.7 MacOS binary packages on CRAN
are way out of date (late Nov 2007), which is worrying when we are
supposed to be beta-testing (and the Windows equivalent has been running
for a month now).
I suggest that until that is updated you use
install.packages("pkgname", type="source")
which has worked for me.

When trying to install any package I get the error:
How? For the command line, install.packages() or the the R.app GUI you did
not mention?
Warning: unable to access index for repository
http://r.research.att.com/bin/macosx/universal/contrib/2.7
Please, what repository must I use? I guess the command must be
> options(repos=c(CRAN="repository URL"))
Thanks for your help!
