Installing from CRAN worked fine for me (same version info):

> library(spatstat)
Loading required package: mgcv
Loading required package: nlme
This is mgcv 1.7-26. For overview type 'help("mgcv-package")'.
Loading required package: deldir
deldir 0.1-1
Loading required package: abind
Loading required package: tensor
Loading required package: polyclip
polyclip 1.1-0

spatstat 1.34-1       (nickname: ‘Window Cleaner’) 
For an introduction to spatstat, type ‘beginner’

Notice that if you have installs in multiple locations, an older install might be masking a newer one.

Did the “user-friendly” downloader perchance unpack the .tgz file for you?
