I love using tikzDevice. When preparing LaTeX documents I switched to prepare all graphs in GNU R and then port them to TeX using tikzDevice. Recently I have moved to GNU R 3.0.0 and was shocked to find that this package is no longer available on CRAN. Fortunately I was able to find package on the web. Unfortunately - installing old package on GNU R version 3.0.0 simply generates an error when trying to load it. So for now the only solution for me was to: Fortunately this worked. I really hope that tikzDevice will be back to CRAN in the future.
