Bug in the "reformulate" function in stats package
Well, first I can't sign in bugzilla myself, that is why I wrote here first. Also, I don't know if I have the time at the moment to provide tests, multiple examples or more. If that is not ok or welcomed, that is fine, I can come back, whenever I have more time to properly report the bug. I didn't find the existing bug report, sorry for that. Yes, it is related. My problem was that I have column names with spaces and current solution doesn't solve it. I have a solution, which works for me and maybe also for others. Either, someone can register me to bugzilla or I can post it here, which could give some direction to developers. I don't mind whichever is preferred here. Best, Saren

Well, you could have given a small reproducible example depicting the bug, notably when posting here: Just a prose text with no R code or other technical content is almost always not really appropriate fo the R-devel mailing list. Further, in such a case you should google a bit and hopefully have found https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html which also mention reproducibility (and many more useful things). Then it also tells you about R's bug repository, also called "R's bugzilla" at https://bugs.r-project.org/ and if you are diligent (but here, I'd say bugzilla is (configured?) far from ideal), you'd also find bug PR#17359 https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17359 which was reported already on Nov 2017 .. and only fixed yesterday (in the "cleanup old bugs" process that happens often before the big new spring release of R). So is your bug the same as that one? Martin
