R-3.0.0 reg-tests-3.R / survival

Any chance that you might have a personal library, which isn't versioned? If you do and you for some reason installed survival into it, it would explain it.

E.g., I have, with the system-wide R

.libPaths()

[1] "/Users/pd/Library/R/2.15/library"                                         
[2] "/opt/local/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library"

lapply(.libPaths(), list.files)

[[1]]
 [1] "abind"      "aplpack"    "car"        "colorspace" "e1071"     
 [6] "effects"    "ellipse"    "Hmisc"      "ISwR"       "leaps"     
[11] "lmtest"     "matrixcalc" "mclust"     "multcomp"   "mvtnorm"   
[16] "pcaPP"      "Rcmdr"      "relimp"     "represent"  "rgl"       
[21] "robustbase" "rrcov"      "sem"        "xtable"     "zoo"       

[[2]]
 [1] "base"       "boot"       "class"      "cluster"    "codetools" 
 [6] "compiler"   "datasets"   "foreign"    "graphics"   "grDevices" 
[11] "grid"       "KernSmooth" "lattice"    "MASS"       "Matrix"    
[16] "methods"    "mgcv"       "nlme"       "nnet"       "parallel"  
[21] "rpart"      "spatial"    "splines"    "stats"      "stats4"    
[26] "survival"   "tcltk"      "tools"      "utils"     

but the one in my development build tree of 3.0.0 has

.libPaths()

[1] "/Users/pd/r-release-branch/BUILD-dist/library"

If I explicitly set R_LIBS, I can easily reproduce your error.

"make check" is failing on reg-test3.R with a message that survival was built with an older version of R.  (On my Ubuntu 32 bit and Ubuntu 64 bit machines). Why would "make check" be looking anywhere that it would find something built with an older version of R?

~/RoboAdmin/R-3.0.0/tests$ tail reg-tests-3.Rout.fail

print(1.001, digits=16)

[1] 1.001

## 2.4.1 gave  1.001000000000000
## 2.5.0 errs on the side of caution.


## as.matrix.data.frame with coercion
library(survival)

Error: package 'survival' was built before R 3.0.0: please re-install it
