I'm trying to download a package from R which is called bertin array.
The address I have is http://bertin.r-forge.r-project.org/ .
The problem that when I try to download comes a message that the package is incompatible with my version of R .
Is this normal? How do I know which version is suitable?
There are several ways to install a package. Being more objective, I searched for specific information about package bertin requirements, but did not find it.
So, thinking that the issue is just download , you can do so at this link: link , the binary files for Linux and Windows.
Afterthedownloadofthefile,simplyexecutethefunctioninstall.packages()
install.packages("D:/bertin_0.1-94.zip", repos = NULL, type = "win.binary")
Notice that the first argument of the function is the location of the file, which will depend on where you saved the download .
If the problem is the version of R, which I could not determine because I did not meet the requirements of the package, I suggest that you install the latest version of the R database. In the case of Windows, this can be done using the installr , by applying the updateR() function:
library (intallr)
updateR()
Other tips on updating the base package R you can read here in this answer:

I hope I have helped.
Q.: My OS is Windows 7, I use version 3.2.3 of R in RStudio and I had no problems installing bertin .
