[R] package vars doesn´t working

[Pfaff, Bernhard Dr.]

Dear Claudio,

hard to tell without further information, but I reckon that you:

1) have a secondary library in use
2) have installed the packages 'vars' **and** 'MASS' installed into this secondary library

If so, remove the package 'MASS' from this secondary library (it's shipped in the standard library in your R installation already). Hint: check whether you have installed other recommended packages into your secondary library and if so, remove these, too. Otherwise you migt encounter the same problem with packages that do depend on the ones that are already shipped in the primary library of your R installation.

This all is just a guess, because you have not provided enough information to diagnose further.

Best,
Bernhard

Betreff: [R] package vars doesn´t working

Hello,

I was using R (v.2.11.1, 32 bits) and I did the upgrade to R (v.2.12.0, 64 bits). I followed the instructions in Rs FAQ (Whats the best way to upgrade, question 2.8) and updated my packages. However, now, I cant use the library "vars". When I call it, there is an error message concerning the package "MASS" which couldnt be updated because it seems to be no more available in Rs repositories.

Is this a problem with "vars"? Maybe it will have to be updated soon with no more need to ask for "MASS"? Is there another way to invoke "vars"?

Thanks for your time and attention
