[ESS] Problem with ESS / R / tracebug under OS X

[Vitalie Spinu]

Hi Rainer, 

It is an R issue. It depends on how you source or evaluate the code in
the first place, and ESS cannot do much if R doesn't report error
references. 

You should give more details of what you mean by "I run code in a
package". R shows <text>#N if the code was evaluated with
eval(parse(text=...)) and may be on some other occasions.
