Hi, I'm trying to install R from an rpm locally to my account (the reason I'm not doing it through yast/yast2/zypper is that the sys admin isn't yet willing to install it, and doesn't want to support it, but will help me support it if I install it locally -- in short, policy problems rather than technical). Below is the SuSE version, Kernel version, and rpm install error I'm getting, as well as the error...
Can anyone help me with the error? I'm trying to install R-base 2.14.1, but it is telling me that I need R-base version 2.14.1 as a dependency. Am I using the wrong rpm for an installation starting from scratch? I got the rpm from: http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/devel:/languages:/R:/base/SLE_10/x86_64/ Thanks, Matt pettis@swat:~/bin> cat /etc/*-release SUSE Linux Enterprise Server 10 (x86_64) VERSION = 10 PATCHLEVEL = 2 pettis@swat:~/bin> uname -a Linux swat 2.6.16.60-0.34-smp #1 SMP Fri Jan 16 14:59:01 UTC 2009 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux pettis@swat:~/bin> rpm -ivh R-base-devel-2.14.1-30.1.x86_64.rpm warning: R-base-devel-2.14.1-30.1.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID 793371fe error: Failed dependencies: R-base = 2.14.1 is needed by R-base-devel-2.14.1-30.1.x86_64 [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
