You are trying to install a Linux binary package.
On the CRAN Mac distribution, set type="source" for a source package.

I am trying to install DASPlusR, which isn't in the repository, so the
package needs to be downloaded from CRAN.
It's not on CRAN, AFAIK. The Mac OS X link at
http://www.statistik.tuwien.ac.at/StatDA/DASplusR/
is broken. Please report it to the distributor. You will need to get the
source package.
I have downloaded and tried to install with the following result:
install.packages(repos=NULL,
"/Users/graham/DASplusR_0.0-2_R_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz")
Error in gzfile(file, "r") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In gzfile(file, "r") :
cannot open compressed file
'DASplusR_0.0-2_R_x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz/DESCRIPTION',
probable reason 'No such file or directory'
I then tried downloading the zip file and got this message:
Which is for Windows ....
install.packages(repos=NULL, "/Users/graham/Desktop/DASplusR_0.0-2.zip")
gzip: stdin has more than one entry--rest ignored
tar: Child returned status 2
tar: Error exit delayed from previous errors
This is R 2.7.2 on Tiger, if it matters, but I assume I have just got
some silly error here, and would be grateful if someone could tell me
what it is.
Many thanks,
Graham
