Long time no see....

 

I'm not sure I can help but I will make a couple of suggestions:

 

(1) Start R clean, install the new package, exit R normally, restart R
and then try to find the package. I am adding a couple of extra,
undocumented, and generally unnecessary steps in case the programs you
are running change the R environment in an unexpected fashion.

 

(2) Document specific code that reliably reproduces the error condition.
I understand this may be difficult but I think you will attract interest
from more capable programmers if you can do it.

I and my students have been having an odd problem with this release,

which is that packages are disappearing. After installation the

package is found with the library command, but later in the same

session or in a later session, the library command returns a not found

error. Then later it is back. Happening on both Windows and OS X,

mostly but not entirely with Bioconductor packages.
