Where do you think the bug is here? Both the NEWS file (in the very first
section) and the rw-FAQ tell you explicitly that packages (sic) have to be
reinstalled for 2.0.0. So does the error message you quote. What do you
think
o Packages must have been re-installed for this version, and
library() will enforce this.
means? Why do you think the major number has been changed from 1 to 2?
Since you are clearly not sure, the FAQ specifically asks you NOT to file
a bug report but to ask someone who knows.
There are updated Windows builds for Lindsey's `libraries' on his site.

Yes, the package is there but it is not valid -- as the error message
says. Whatever DO you think the message means?
