Hi Gabor,

My full output is below:









*   Error: object 'col_ed' is not exported by 'namespace:cli'   Execution
halted   ERROR: lazy loading failed for package 'packagename'
 -----------------------------------   ERROR: package installation
failedError: 'col_ed' is not an exported object from
'namespace:cli'Execution haltedExited with status 1.*

Unfortunately, I can't share a full reproducible example since this package
is also included in a manuscript for publication.

I don't export any objects named 'col_ed' so I am quite perplexed by this
error message.

I'd appreciate any advice!

Danielle
