I just downloaded R 2.2.0 for Windows, after which I installed several Bioconductor packages using the packages menu. I downloaded hexbin and graph apparently without incident, except that "colorspace" was not found. However, I cannot run hexbin: >library(hexbin) Loading required package: colorspace Error: package 'colorspace' could not be loaded In addition: Warning message: there is no package called 'colorspace' in: library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical = TRUE, lib.loc = lib.loc) > hexbin Error: object "hexbin" not found "graph" apparently installed "Ruuid".

I'm guessing: 1. you did the installation using the menus 2. you had selected only the bioconductor repository to select packages from. Unfortunately, this doesn't allow the tools to install dependencies from other package repositories, namely CRAN, where colorspace is hosted. This isn't your fault and it is something we will try to address for the future. I think you can resolve your issue with hexbin by installing the colorspace package from CRAN. You might also try select both bioconductor and CRAN repositories form the menu and then reinstalling hexbin (note: I haven't tried this, but I think it has a good chance of working). Best, + seth

Thank you Seth and Marcus. Installing colorspace solved the problem. --Naomi At 04:53 PM 10/19/2005, Seth Falcon wrote: >Hi Naomi, > >On 19 Oct 2005, naomi at stat.psu.edu wrote: > > > I just downloaded R 2.2.0 for Windows, after which I installed > > several Bioconductor packages using the packages menu. > > > > I downloaded hexbin and graph apparently without incident, except > > that "colorspace" was not found. > >I'm guessing: > 1. you did the installation using the menus > 2. you had selected only the bioconductor repository to select > packages from. > >Unfortunately, this doesn't allow the tools to install dependencies >from other package repositories, namely CRAN, where colorspace is >hosted. > >This isn't your fault and it is something we will try to address for >the future. > >I think you can resolve your issue with hexbin by installing the >colorspace package from CRAN. > >You might also try select both bioconductor and CRAN repositories form >the menu and then reinstalling hexbin (note: I haven't tried this, but >I think it has a good chance of working). > >Best, > >+ seth > >_______________________________________________ >Bioconductor mailing list >Bioconductor at stat.math.ethz.ch >https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/bioconductor Naomi S.

The colorspace dependency is available from any cran mirror, e.g. http://cran.au.r-project.org/src/contrib/Descriptions/colorspace.html Marcus On 10/20/05 7:58 AM, "Naomi Altman" <naomi at="" stat.psu.edu=""> wrote: > I just downloaded R 2.2.0 for Windows, after which I installed > several Bioconductor packages using the packages menu. > > I downloaded hexbin and graph apparently without incident, except > that "colorspace" was not found. > > However, I cannot run hexbin: > >> library(hexbin) > > Loading required package: colorspace > Error: package 'colorspace' could not be loaded > In addition: Warning message: > there is no package called 'colorspace' in: library(pkg, > character.only = TRUE, logical = TRUE, lib.loc = lib.loc) > >> hexbin > Error: object "hexbin" not found > > > "graph" apparently installed "Ruuid".
