Blotter R used with XTS package

Hi all has anyone noticed that since the last update on 15 Sep blotter R package is not possible to download anymore from the Forge.

Is this a glitch or the whole package has been taken down and is not anymor开发者_高级运维e part of open source?

It is still there and can be downloaded, but not installed:

There seems to be a problem with building a package (FinancialInstrument) which is a dependency for blotter and thus things might not be working properlyin the R-Forge build system. Contact the maintainers via the R-Forge site for further help.

You need to install FinancialInstrument. If you already have FinancialInstrument installed, you need to update it, as blotter now Depends on FinancialInstrument(>=0.6.3).
