title: Unable to install package shiny on R 3.0.2
body: <p>I am using Win64 and am unable to install the 'shiny' package on R. When trying to install, the following message is populated. Can someone please put me in the right track or am I missing something really stupid here?</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; install.packages("shiny")
  Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Ayan/Documents/R/win-library/3.0’
  (as ‘lib’ is unspecified)

  <p>I tried using India, Cloud(0) as the CRAN mirror</p>
  
  <p>contents of ui.R file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>library(shiny)
  
  # Define UI for application that plots random distributions 
  shinyUI(pageWithSidebar(
  
  # Application title
   headerPanel("Hello Shiny!"),
  
    # Sidebar with a slider input for number of observations
    sidebarPanel(
      sliderInput("obs", 
              "Number of observations:", 
              min = 1,
              max = 1000, 
              value = 500)
    ),
  
    # Show a plot of the generated distribution
    mainPanel(
      plotOutput("distPlot")
    )
  ))
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>contents of server.R file:</p>
  
  <pre><code>    library(shiny)
  
      # Define server logic required to generate and plot a random distribution
  shinyServer(function(input, output) {
  
    # Expression that generates a plot of the distribution. The expression
    # is wrapped in a call to renderPlot to indicate that:
    #
    #  1) It is "reactive" and therefore should be automatically 
    #     re-executed when inputs change
    #  2) Its output type is a plot 
    #
    output$distPlot &lt;- renderPlot({
  
      # generate an rnorm distribution and plot it
          dist &lt;- rnorm(input$obs)
          hist(dist)
        })
      })
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Also I was facing problem installing the package 'holdOut' for classification problem. This is what it shows:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&gt; install.packages("holdOut")
  Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Ayan/Documents/R/win-library/3.0’
  (as ‘lib’ is unspecified)
  Warning in install.packages :
    package ‘holdOut’ is not available (for R version 3.0.2)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Are these 2 problems related?</p>
