Trying to build its_1.0.4 in a chroot environment to update the corresponding Debian package, I get
* Installing *source* package 'its' ... ** R ** inst ** save image Loading required package: Hmisc Hmisc library by Frank E Harrell Jr Type library(help='Hmisc'), ?Overview, or ?Hmisc.Overview') to see overall documentation. NOTE:Hmisc no longer redefines [.factor to drop unused levels when subsetting. To get the old behavior of Hmisc type dropUnusedLevels().

This is somehow related to the reduced environment provided in the chroot -- I recall having seen (and fixed) the error when other packages where needed during build time. Hmisc is installed. Nothing else outside of R-base should be needed. I think I am overlooking something simple, but a couple of simple attempts didn't get me anywhere. The chroot isn't a problem per se as several dozen CRAN packages get built that way into Debian packages.
