[R] R CMD check Error: package MASS was built before R 3.0.0 - not true!?

[Hennig, Christian]

Dear Jeff,

thanks. Somehow R didn't install MASS where it later looked for it. I still haven't understood properly what caused the problem but I managed to fix it now (by specifying lib when installing it).

Best wishes,
Christian

Perhaps check your R_LIBS* variables?
