I just went through the instructions on statsgrass to set up Rdbi and RdbiPgSQL. The url for Rdbi and RdbiPgSQL have changed on the bioconductor web site. Therefore the commands (within R) to install the Rdbi and RdbiPqSQL packages should be changed from:
R
#within R, simply do the next two steps:
install.packages(contriburl=“http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/Source/”,“Rdbi”)
install.packages(contriburl=“http://www.bioconductor.org/repository/devel/package/Source/”,“RdbiPgSQL”)
to:
R
#within R, simply do the next two steps:
install.packages(contriburl=“http://http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/bioc/1.8/src/contrib/”,“Rdbi”)
install.packages(contriburl=“http://http://www.bioconductor.org/packages/bioc/1.8/src/contrib/”,“RdbiPgSQL”)
Since I was doing this on a mac I also had to include the type=“source” argument (thanks for that tip Roger).
Nevertheless, it seems that the statsgrass webpage could be updated.

why changing this?
It works (tested now, in R-210) for me.
Right, I am pointing to the development version, but in the last
two years I had to use it instead of an officially released version
to enjoy bugfixes.

Maybe this is the trick?
I have added it to the page:

Not sure. - Roger?
