[Rd] interpolation using akima (PR#8174)

[Renaud Lancelot]

This message should be sent to the package maintainer, not to this list.

Moreover, it works fine with my installation (i.e., I don't get the
bug you describe):

R:

platform i386-pc-mingw32
arch     i386
os       mingw32
system   i386, mingw32
status   beta
major    2
minor    2.0
year     2005
month    09
day      24
svn rev  35666
language R


akima:
Package:       akima
Version:       0.4-5
Date:          2005-07-21

Best,

Renaud
