Well, R-2.13.0 is in "Release Candidate" ('RC') stage, after having passed the alpha and beta stages. So, almost surely, the current CRAN version of Matrix, also part of all recent R-2.13.0 tarballs will be shipped along. If we can reproduce your problem, we will fix it, hopefully pretty soon, and release a version of Matrix, 0.9996875-0 close to the release time of R-2.13.0; but for stability reasons (of R-2.13.0 and all its testing on all platforms), it would not ship with 2.13.0 and only people who explicitly update.packages(...) [after R-2.13.0 installation] will get it. Martin ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
