I am using R 2.15.2 and I want to install the tm package to do some text analysis. I have downloaded the compatible tm package from the CRAN archives. I downloaded tm_0.5-9
I tried to install it using
install.packages("/Downloads/tm_0.5-9.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source", dependencies = TRUE) and got the following error
Installing package(s) into ‘/Documents/R/win-library/2.15’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) ERROR: dependency 'slam' is not available for package 'tm' * removing '/Documents/R/win-library/2.15/tm' Warning in install.packages : running command 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-215~1.2/bin/x64/R CMD INSTALL -l "/Documents/R/win-library/2.15" "/Downloads/tm_0.5-9.tar.gz"' had status 1 Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘/Downloads/tm_0.5-9.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status. Therefore, I went ahead and downloaded the compatible slam package from the CRAN archives. I downloaded slam_0.1-26
I tried to install it using
install.packages("/Downloads/slam_0.1-26.tar.gz", repos = NULL, type="source") and got the following error
