Hi list, a question for persons using Suse Linux with R. There are two rpms for Suse 8.2 on the mirrors for the base 1.8.0 package, The R-base-1.8.... rpm and one which is named R-patchted-1.8.0... rpm. The second one is 4 megs smaller than the first and the patch is naturally posted later. My question is: Do I need to install both, or is the "patched" version a full version of the base package containing some fixes. 

Thanks, 

wayne king
