Subject: ":::" operator doesn't work with data object Ecdat:::Crime

????? The ":::" operator doesn't work for me with "Ecdat:::Crime" on 
either macOS 10.15.3 or Windows 10.


 ????? A different but related issue is that "plm::Crime" says "Error: 
'Crime' is not an exported object from 'namespace:plm'", even though 
"library(plm); data(Crime); Crime" works.? I would naively think a user 
should be able to compare "Crime" objects documented in different 
packages using the "::" and ":::" operators, even if a package 
maintainer chooses not to "export" data objects.


 ????? What do you think?


 ????? Thanks,
 ????? Spencer Graves

results from Windows 10 if you want it.
