Submission from: (NULL) (128.252.149.244)


Using R2.2.0 I get this error msg when loading certain bioconductor libraries
(depending on whether the library contains file named "all.rda" in R folder of
library) :

> library(multtest)
Error in open.connection(con, "rb") : unable to open connection
In addition: Warning message:
cannot open compressed file 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-22~1.0/library/multtest/R/all.rda'

Error in library(multtest) : .First.lib failed for 'multtest'
>

The error occurs with loading any library that doesn't have an "all.rda" file in
its R folder...


...With R2.1.1 the exact same version of multtest loads fine :

> library(multtest)
Loading required package: survival
Loading required package: splines
