[Rd] installing spam package is failing (spam_0.29-1)

The primary error seems to be:

 "Creating a new generic function for "diff" in "spam"
   Error in setGeneric(f, where = where) :
     must supply a function skeleton, explicitly or via an existing
function"

And the full output follows. Any thoughts on what may be happening
and/or how to work around the problem?

Thanks!
