[R] trouble with XML

[Erin Hodgess]

Dear R People:

I'm trying to install ctv (I'm working through the Bivand et al book)

But I'm running into a problem:

> install.packages("ctv",depen=TRUE)
--- Please select a CRAN mirror for use in this session ---
also installing the dependency ‘XML’

trying URL 'http://streaming.stat.iastate.edu/CRAN/bin/windows/contrib/2.11/XML_3.1-1.zip'

package 'XML' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked
Error in normalizePath(path) :
  path[1]="C:\R\R-2.11.1\library/XML": The system cannot find the file specified

I've tried on several different mirrors, but still get the same
results.  Has anyone run into this before, please?

Windows XP, R-2.11.1

thanks,
Erin
