I’m trying to download a package from R which is called the Bertin matrix.
The address I have is http://bertin.r-forge.r-project.org/.
The problem that when I try to download comes a message that the package is incompatible with my version of R.
Is that normal? How to know which version is appropriate?

There are several ways to install a package. Being more objective, I looked for specific information about the package requirements bertin, but I couldn’t find it.
So, wondering if the problem is just download, you can make it on this link: https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/? group_id=99 , the binary files for Linux and Windows.
After the download of the file, just run the function install.packages()
install.packages("D:/bertin_0.1-94.zip", repos = NULL, type = "win.binary")
Note that the first argument of the function is the location of the file, which will depend on where you saved the download.
If the problem is the R version, which I couldn’t determine because I couldn’t find the package requirements, I suggest you install the latest R base version. In the case of Windows, this can be done using the package installr, applying the function updateR():
library (intallr)
updateR()
Other tips on R base pack updates you can read here in this reply:

I hope I’ve helped.
P.S.: My OS is Windows 7, I use version 3.2.3 of R on Rstudio and had no problems with installing bertin.

I installed here without problems: install.Packages("Bertin", Repos="http://R-Forge.R-project.org"). I am using the latest version of R: R version 3.2.3 (2015-12-10). Confirm your version of R and update if necessary.

Regina, could you put exactly what version of the R you are using? Just type
