To fix this, fix the available.packages\(\) call in .rk.cached.available.packages\(\). Basically, check if repos == '@CRAN@' and call rk.select.CRAN.mirror\(\); set the repos and then call available.packages\(\). 3\. Add the base CRAN mirror: "http://cran.r-project.org" \(an Austrian server\) to the chooseCRANmirror\(\) list. May be even set this as the default, if none is selected?-- Labels: General --
"the same old Tcl/Tk menu is shown" Are you sure? For me it's the new RKWard native menu. You can differentiate the two by the window icon. If it's an RKWard one, it's ours, if it's a plain X11, it's the tcl-menu. Also, you would see a message "Loading Tcl/Tk interface" for the tcl-menu. Of course either way it does not provide the extended information about the mirrors. The most central place to fix this would be in chooseCRANmirror\(\) \(which is a bit difficult to override, but see the bottom section of internal.R, where we replace menu\(\) and select.list\(\)\).
