[R] Error: could not find function "extract" in package raster

[Prof Brian Ripley]

Users of R 2.11.1 (let alone 2.11.0) x64 Windows were asked to update 
in August, and we switched off the last remnants of support when 
2.12.0 was released.

Please do as the posting guide asked you to do before posting: update 
to R 2.12.0 (or 2.12.0 patched), and update all your packages.

lattics is 0.19-13
raster is 1.6-15
sp is 0.9-72

These are not the same versions as below.
