[R-pkg-devel] function name conflict

[Kevin R. Coombes]

Thanks for the answer. In the process of going back to try making a 
minimal example, I realized that the problem isn't my package; it 
already occurs in one of the packages I import. (I could have sworn I 
checked this previously, but apparently missed the true culprit.) In any 
event, I'll report a bug to them and suggest more careful use of 
importFrom to get around it.

Best,
   Kevin
