Thanks Duncan. Please clarify: if I use ellipse::ellipse in code, do I need to have @importFrom ellipse eliipse in the Roxygen code.

I can't tell what's going wrong in your NAMESPACE file, but that's where the problem is that leads to the errors you saw. In future, please don't write privately, post to the list.
