Dear Lorenzo, Dear R list,[a] to all recipients: sorry, this email is html-against my own believes and because of inevitable constraints so far.[b] to Lorenzo: "...and I have recently update my R environment" sounds as that would be a gift of heaven! How did you manage to update and how exactly went the process of updating the whole R environment, as you put it? I turn to you since I have not received an understandable answer to that question yet (see [d] below for sessionInfo() details).[c] to all R users: I use as OS a debian derivative (Kubuntu) long-term service version; this spring/ early summer as I was told, a new LTS would be released. Has a new/ revised R version in release in 2016 any Achille's heel that is already known? I perceive that some of the (package) update issues I experience might be due to OS compatibility (see [d] below for sessionInfo() details).[d]> sessionInfo()R version 3.0.2 (2013-09-25)Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NUMERIC=C [3] LC_TIME=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_COLLATE=de_DE.UTF-8 [5] LC_MONETARY=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_MESSAGES=de_DE.UTF-8 [7] LC_PAPER=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_NAME=de_DE.UTF-8 [9] LC_ADDRESS=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_TELEPHONE=de_DE.UTF-8 [11] LC_MEASUREMENT=de_DE.UTF-8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=de_DE.UTF-8attached base packages:[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages:[1] rkward_0.6.1loaded via a namespace (and not attached):[1] tools_3.0.2Best regards,Markus HofstetterLorenzo Isella <lorenzo.ise...@gmail.com> schrieb (19.04.2016 17:23):Dear All, I have never had this problem before.
