Whatever it is, it's apparently a bit on the subtle side. Perhaps a previous test loads the data, and for some reason that previous test doesn't run for you. I couldn't find one that did, though.

From my 'make check':

running code in '../../source/tests/reg-tests-3.R' ... OK
comparing 'reg-tests-3.Rout' to '../../source/tests/reg-tests-3.Rout.save' ... OK


And my reg-tests-3.R does not have the data() statement:

if(require(MASS)) {
fit <- lm(formula = 1000/MPG.city ~ Weight + Cylinders + Type + EngineSize + DriveTrain, data = Cars93)
print(lm.influence(fit))
## row 57 should have hat = 1 and resid=0. summary(influence.measures(fit))
}

Anyhow, when I ran ``make check'' I got an error right toward the
end.  Looking in the directory ``tests'' I found that the error was
associated with the file reg-tests-3.R, and the complaint was that it
couldn't find the object Cars93 from the MASS package.

So I edited reg-tests-3.R and stuck in the line ``data(Cars93)'':

===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===
## lm.influence where hat[1] == 1
if(require(MASS)) {
#
data(Cars93) # <------------------------- INSERTED LINE
#
fit <- lm(formula = 1000/MPG.city ~ Weight + Cylinders + Type + EngineSize + DriveTrain, data = Cars93)
print(lm.influence(fit))
## row 57 should have hat = 1 and resid=0.
summary(influence.measures(fit))
}
## only last two cols in row 57 should be influential
===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===


Then I re-ran make check, and everything seemed to go OK.

I had a brief scan of the r-help mailing list archives just now and
could find no allusions to this problem.

Has anyone else encountered the problem?  ***Should*** that line
``data(Cars93)'' be in the code?  If not, what is going on?  If so,
why hasn't anyone else been bitten?  (Like, I mean, why me?) :-)


cheers,
