[R-pkg-devel] seeking help regarding the valgrind error

[Yang Feng]

Hi All,

Happy new year! I just joined this mailing list and would like to post my
first question.

I received a message earlier this month regarding an error in my R package
RAMP https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/RAMP/index.html
I need to update the package by the end of this month to prevent it from
removed from CRAN.

The detailed email message is as follows. Does anyone know how to fix this?
Also, how to reproduce this kind of error on my local mac?

Many thanks!


Checking with valgrind shows:
