[R-sig-Geo] Problem with spatstat

[Rodrigo De Carreras]

Dr. Baddeley, thanks for your answer

I agree with you, it is not an error with spatstat but an error 
that appears when I call spatstat with library("spatstat") 
or require("spatstat") inmediately after the R startup. 

Is spatstat calling mgcv by default?

I tried:

install.packages("mgcv")
library("mgcv")

and the problem persist. I will contact the authors
of mgcv. 

Thanks again, spatstat is a wonderful tool.

Rodrigo
