This is a limitation of R, I believe. I do not think you can import two versions of the same package in R simultaneously (but I could be wrong). I would suggest that you take the function from the older package and make a new package with that function that depends on the newer version of the original package. Also, make sure that the old function is truly NOT in the new version of the package, as sometimes it is there but not exported. A simple way to check in R is to do: packagename:::functionname Note the ::: operator. If none of this is quite right, have a look at the R function detach(), but note that detaching a package is not guaranteed to be successful.
