Due to some pesky api address changes at the Census, we've updated the
acs package with yet another quick patch. Pretty much everything
should work the same --- no improvements, just a fix to allow you to
get data that wasn't fetching. No other aspects of the package were
changed with this release.
*** Downloading and installing
To install the updated version, simply fire up an R session and type:
#+BEGIN_SRC R
> install.packages("acs", clean=T)
> acs.tables.install()
#+END_SRC
If you're updating from a previous version, don't forget to re-install
or "api.key.migrate()" your api key if it doesn't seem to have been
migrated during install. We also strongly recommend you run
"acs.tables.install()" as well -- you only need to do this once per
installation (or update), and it will really speed up the package.
Thanks!
