Important: the ZIP file must have the name "rpact_2.9.9.9xxx.zip" (please remove the "_0", "_1" or "_2" from the name if available); otherwise the installation will fail. - RGui: We recommend to install the package with the RGui and not RStudio because sometimes RStudio has caused some problems with the installation.
