So I did actually removing everything (on Prof. Ripley's advise) and
restarting from the version downloaded from CRAN (the one I sent
yesterday to Kurt Hornik !!!)... And he does work !!!! Arrrrgh.... and
all those sort of things...

A least now I know the trouble does not come from Ubuntu but likely from
the way I copied files created under Windows to Linux. Maybe more than a
clue...

Sorry to have taken time from you both for so few (I was really messing
on the wrong tracks) and heartly thanks,

Patrick
