[R-sig-Geo] Problem installing spproj

[Sander Oom]

Dear R-geo subscribers,

Using the following commands, I am trying in vain to install spproj:

rSpatial <- "http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/R"
install.packages("spproj", repos=rSpatial)

I get the following response:

> rSpatial <- "http://r-spatial.sourceforge.net/R"
> install.packages("spproj", repos=rSpatial)

Any suggestions?
