[R] New Installs, Same Trouble Loading doBy and coin Packages

[Adam Carr]

I tried Tal's suggestion of deleting the doBy and coin packages and then 
reinstalling them from a different mirror. The first install was from the 
Harvard mirror and the second was from the Case Western Univ. mirror. The new 
packages generate the same errors when I call them using the library() command.

Also, I tried to load these packages using R and its script editor thinking that 
the problem may have something to do with Tinn-R, but the same errors are 
generated on the R terminal when I use the library() function.

Any help would be appreciated.

Again, the errors for these two packages:

Error in length(label) : could not find function ".extendsForS3"
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'doBy'


> library(coin)
Loading required package: mvtnorm
Loading required package: modeltools
Loading required package: stats4  #This is odd. I cannot find any reference for 
this package. AC
Error in length(sig) : could not find function ".extendsForS3"
Error: package 'stats4' could not be loaded

Hi Tal:

No I have not tried this. I will do it this evening and we'll see what happens. 
Thanks for the suggestion.

Adam

I Adam, 
Have you tried deleting the package files and then reinstalling them from a
different CRAN mirror?
