I am trying to follow along in the Statistical Sleuth here to teach myself some regression analysis for my job in machine learning, but when installing the "mosaic" package it requires the "car" package. So I did install.packages(car) but I see that the url R is trying to open is
http://cran.rstudio.com/bin/windows/contrib/3.1/car_2.0-20.zip
However, the correct url (as seen here) is
http://cran.r-project.org/bin/windows/contrib/3.1/car_2.0-21.zip
How can I make R open a custom url and install this package?
I just looked at update.packages(), and there's an update for the car package.
> update.packages()
# ...
# car :
# Version 2.0-20 installed in /home/richard/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.1
# Version 2.0-21 available at http://cran.rstudio.com
Update (y/N/c)?
Entering y, the URL in question appears in the download message
Update (y/N/c)? y
# trying URL 'http://cran.rstudio.com/src/contrib/car_2.0-21.tar.gz'
# Content type 'application/x-gzip' length 584149 bytes (570 Kb)
# opened URL

So I would probably install car first, then try mosaic
