This looks like a problem with package dependencies.  Should be sending this to
the 
package author, not r-bugs?


An attempt to install lattice from the windows binary runs OK, but attempting to
load the library an error occurs:

> install.packages("D:/Software/R/lattice.zip", .lib.loc[1], CRAN = NULL)
updating HTML package descriptions
> library(lattice)
Error in parse(file, n, text, prompt) : syntax error on line 2022

I then tried installing under linux with R 1.5.1

This installed OK, but loading the library gave another error:

> library(lattice)
Error in library(grid) : There is no package called `grid'

Installing grid on linux resulted in lattice loading and working properly

Installing grid also fixed the problem on windows.
