I believe "MyPackage" was either the actual name of the package, or what Johannes substituted for it. But this whole thread would be a lot clearer if we had an actual reproducible example to look at, rather than a report of it that includes typos and substitutions. > perhaps with a hint: "Possibly Package is not exporting a NAMESPACE." > (At least, I think this does not work unless Package has a namespace.) The message looked pretty clear to me, and agrees with the documentation. For "::" to work, the package needs a namespace OR must be on the search path. Apparently neither of those was true in this case.
