Hi Uwe, It seems like this is quite a major change; I imagine it will affect many packages (since lots of packages implicitly assume other 'base' packages, like 'utils', will always be available in an R session). IIUC, in the latest versions of R-devel, only the 'base' package can be assumed available; everything else must be explicitly imported.
https://github.com/wch/r-source/commit/dba5a49dcae7e9bcb8528cf78fd9d51f092652b2 Is there any chance that such changes could be made in announcements on R-pkg-devel? Or, as an aside, would it be permissible for non-R-core members to make such announcements on this list?
