[R] dse package problems

[Prof Brian Ripley]

These are actually all the same thing, infinite recursion in a print() 
method.  (Even the third reports that for my system.)  It appears to be 
the print.tframed method inside print.TSdata which fails to change the 
class (and this looks like a candidate for NextMethod).

You need to take it up with the package maintainer.

I suspect you updated the dse _bundle_ in doing so.
