The latest version of survival on CRAN is 2.36-14.

When you install rms, be sure to use:

install.packages("rms", dependencies = TRUE)

to be sure that package dependencies are satisfied during the installation.

Hi,

First, please be sure to "reply-all" when following up so that the thread stays on the public list.

The messages suggest that you might not have 'root' access when installing the packages, so the installation of the packages to the default location fails.

You need to 'su' to root via the command line before running R and then installing the packages.

If your account does not have su permissions, you can either get a SysAdmin who does or specify a path for the 'lib' argument in install.packages() so that the packages are installed to a local folder where you have permissions. See ?install.packages for more information.
