Actually, I should stand corrected if you are on e.g., win32. The 
current pre-built version of repeated was built under R < 2.0.0, so 
re-installing won't work. If you are laboring on a Windows box, you will 
either need to get set up to build packages (not completely trivial, but 
not rocket science either; see the R-FAQ for windows under 'installing 
packages'), or you will need to get someone (Jim Lindsey is the 
maintainer of repeated, so I would assume starting there is the logical 
thing to do) to build a new win32 package for you.

Best,

Jim
