Trying to install "ndl" in R package but it fails

I am trying to install "ndl" in R but I get the following error. I've tried different mirrors but I get the same error.

install.packages("ndl")

In install.packages("ndl") :

Does anyone else get this error? What can I do?

Note: It won't let me post the question because it has too much code, so I'm writing this as "clarification", which makes no sense. The question is short and clear.

I tried install.packages('ndl') and it worked fine for me. I'm guessing that there is a problem with the dependencies needed for ndl. These are found by looking at http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/ndl/ndl.pdf . It looks like ndl depends on MASS and Rcpp. Try:

   install.packages('MASS')
   install.packages('Rcpp')
   install.packages('ndl')

This should manually install the dependencies for ndl.

There should be an error similar to package ‘whatever_package_is_the_problem’ was built before R 3.0.0 when you ran your install.packages('ndl'), so by running install.packages('whatever_package_is_the_problem') should rebuild the packages for R3.0.

I've had this problem with a couple other packages and this technique seems to work. Hope it works for you too!!
