Hi, I'm having trouble installing and using the 'foreign' package in R on a
UNIX machine.

> sessionInfo()
     R version 2.11.1 (2010-05-31)
     sparc-sun-solaris2.10

     locale:
     [1] C

     attached base packages:
     [1] stats     graphics  grDevices utils     datasets  methods   base

Is there a way to find and install an old 'foreign' package that works with
my machine?

Does such a method generalize to finding other out-of-date packages for my
machine?

Thanks!
Kevin
