Hi Katrien

If you have the option you could try installing an older version of R? 

They are available somewhere on the R website.

You may have to find older versions of the packages though as well. 

Regards

John

dear Bioconductors,

Although I managed to teach myself some R (a while ago), I am still a 
novice in Bioconductor... I am trying to experiment a bit with the 
smida-package, but I don't even get is properly installed on my system.
I downloaded the current version form 
http://www.math.rug.nl/~ernst/book/smida.html and installed it (in R 
2.9) after installing the lars package, which it needs to operate
properly.
When I try to load the package, it keeps asking me for package mva, 
which doesn't exist anymore, because it has been replaced -together with

modreg- by the stats package:

Loading required package: mva
Error: package 'mva' could not be loaded
In addition: Warning message:
In library(pkg, character.only = TRUE, logical.return = TRUE, lib.loc = 
lib.loc) :
  there is no package called 'mva'

When I try to look at e.g. data(skin) of data(breast) or any other 
command I find in the manual, R is not able to find any of those.

Can someone please show me the trick to get smida up and working?

Many thanks in advance
katrien
