useR! 2008
by José Abílio Matos 05 Jan '09

Hi, I am writing this from Dortmund, at the useR! 2008 conference http://www.statistik.uni-dortmund.de/useR-2008/ I will have a talk tomorrow about the interaction between R and Fedora. It is a 15 minutes session so there is not much time to expand. I will present Fedora and it interacts with R. There are several issues that are common to the relation between Fedora and languages like perl, python, latex or R. I will also take the opportunity to hear feedback from several types of users regarding the state of R in Fedora. If there is anything relevant I will report back to this list. I have asked pingou (I hope I can use this) to write to the list with the new releases of his package as it would be nice that package automatically in Fedora using yum. Regards, PS: In case you are wondering why I took so long to send this message to the list, believe that it is a long story that involves time shortage. :-) -- José Abílio

That's F-9, yes. F-10 should be just updates-testing (I think) You could also manually download the files locally, and call: yum update R-*.rpm libRmath-* ~spot

R 2.8.1
by Tom Callaway 22 Dec '08

22 Dec '08

R 2.8.1 is packaged up and queued up for testing. Please test this out: Fedora 9: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rpy-1.0.3-6.fc9,R-2.8.1-1.fc9 Fedora 10: https://admin.fedoraproject.org/updates/rpy-1.0.3-6.fc10,R-2.8.1-1.fc10 Once you've tested it, please, please, go to the update URL above and click "Add A Comment". If it works for you, click "Works for me" and write a little bit about how you tested it. That counts as a "+1" of karma for that update. When it gets to +3, the system automatically flags the update to be pushed to stable. You don't have to specifically test rpy to give karma on the update, I have a high degree of confidence in rpy continuing to work. Thanks in advance, ~spot
