What a disconnect?


and cannot do much about it.

They should install the version that is intended for R-2.10.x releases, not the one for the development version.
The RHmm version in the 2.10 repository in CRAN has

Built: R 2.10.1; i386-pc-mingw32; 2010-01-03 15:59:39 UTC; windows


hence built with R-2.10.x as required.



If it is tedious to roll out a new package on time, perhaps there's a
possibility for automation here.


It is automated and we are currently building for R-2.9.x, R-2.10.x and R-devel (the latter in 32-bit and 64-bit), and you have just to say install.packages() and your R wil grab the right version. I suspect you downloaded something manually from the wrong repository.

Thanks.  I encountered this yesterday with RHmm.  I'm running R on
WinXP.

Happy R user!
