Hello,
I just downloaded RW1090. No problems. My thanks to everybody involved in the
project. I work in Win98
I updated my library, some problems with some files that were in the PACKAGES list
but not in 1.9/ site, now all are.
I tried to install "Zelig" from Harvard
install.packages("Zelig",CRAN="http://gking.harvard.edu")
this worked in 1.8.1 but now it appends "bin/windows/contrib/1.9" to the address
and of course it can not find the file and aborts with error 404
Is there a way around besides http'ing directly to harvard and getting the zip and
unzipping it in /library?
Thanks
.
