--- Begin Message ---Package: r-base Version: 3.4.0-1 Severity: normal With current R, R packages built for Debian before the upload of R 3.3.3.20170413-1 on 14 April that use .C or .Fortran do no work properly, because the functions calling .C or .Fortran do not find the compiled objects. Example packages are r-cran-spatial and r-cran-kernsmooth. An example session in a fresh Debian sid chroot: > library(spatial) > example(surf.gls) srf.gl> library(MASS) # for eqscplot srf.gl> data(topo, package="MASS") srf.gl> topo.kr <- surf.gls(2, expcov, topo, d=0.7) Error in surf.gls(2, expcov, topo, d = 0.7) : object 'VR_frset' not found The relevant NEWS entry from R is * Packages which register native routines for .C or .Fortran need to be re-installed for this version (unless installed with R-devel SVN revision r72375 or later). Packages compiled locally can simply be rebuilt using update.packages(lib.loc="/usr/local/lib/R/site-library", checkBuilt=TRUE) However the packages provided by Debian packages are installed in a directory only writable by privileged users.
