Dear all,
I'm trying to install in R the package blme that has been removed from R
cran but it is still in the Archive:
http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/blme/
I have a Mac OSX and I have been trying with the following command from
the Shell:
R CMD INSTALL --build
http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/blme/blme_0.01-4.tar.gz
getting the following answer: invalid package ‘0.01-4.tar.gz’
Can somebody help me? Are there other ways?
You have to download the file first. 'INSTALL' does not know about
URLs, as reading ?INSTALL would have reminded you.
Both ‘lib’ and the elements of ‘pkgs’ may be absolute or relative
path names of directories. ‘pkgs’ may also contain names of
package archive files: these are then extracted to a temporary
directory. These are tarballs containing a single directory,
optionally compressed by ‘gzip’, ‘bzip2’, ‘xz’ or ‘compress’.
Finally, binary package archive files (as created by ‘R CMD
INSTALL --build’) can be supplied.
Thanks in advance,
Grazia
