Yohan,

I get

* checking tests ... ERROR
Running the tests in ‘tests/doRUnit.R’ failed.
Last 13 lines of output:
  Number of failures: 0 
  
   
  1 Test Suite : 
  fGarch unit testing - 52 test functions, 1 error, 0 failures
  ERROR in test.hessian.rosenbrock: Error in .Internal(optimhess(par, fn, gr = NULL, con)) : 
    there is no .Internal function 'optimhess'
  Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : 
  
  unit testing failed (#test failures: 0, R errors: 1)
  
  Calls: source -> withVisible -> eval -> eval
  Execution halted

so I guess you need to update your unit tests as well?
