[Rd] Strange bug in my package

[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Dear all,

I get a bug in the examples of my AFLP package on R-forge (https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=1027) but only on the Linux version. The windows version compiles. The Mac version skips the examples and compiles. The strange thing is that the packages compiles on my Ubuntu 10.10 machine with R 2.15.0. Therefore I can't reproduce the error.

I have traced the problem at
residuals(outliers(data))

outliers(data) gives an AFLP.outlier object (S4) and I have defined

setMethod("residuals", signature(object = "AFLP.outlier"),
        function(object, ...){
                object at Residual
        }
)

setMethod("resid", signature(object = "AFLP.outlier"),
        function(object, ...){
                object at Residual
        }

And the NAMESPACE is

importFrom(stats, hclust, princomp, residuals, resid)
exportPattern(".")

Any suggestions are welcome.

Best regards,

Thierry

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the experiment died of.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.
