I'm trying to install rpy 1.0.3 for R 2.7.1 and python 2.5 from the exe from sourceforge.
On a clean Windows XP VM, first off the installer fails to find MSVCRT71.DLL (so I install various MS .NET runtimes untill I get it). I imagine any Windows machine that's been running a bit has already been infected with this "virus" so maybe nobody else has hit this. Anyway, that's fixed. What I really want to do is make a fairly portable installation of R, Python, and Rpy - which means there's nothing in the Windows registry giving the location of R and Python. When I run the installer exe it fails to find Python 2.5 and so I'm stuck. I can't even tell it where it is. The "Python Directory" and "Installation Directory" fields are uneditable. Can I put these paths on the command line and have the .exe run unattended? Will I hit any other problems with my portable Rpy? Also, there doesn't seem to be tags in SVN that apply to the version numbers in the exe release. Is there a way of finding out which SVN revision I'm dealing with? thanks!
