social network bug! (PR#6729)

Hi. It means that the package your loading was build using a newer
version of R (v 1.9.0) than the version you are using (v1.8.1). This
means that that package might rely on new or modified features (and/or
other packages also build on R v1.9.0). For this reason there is a
risk that the package does not work as expected. This does not say
that it might not work perfectly fine anyway, but you should be aware
of it. Hence the warning (and not an error).

BTW, this is not a bug. Next time, please send these type of questions
to the r-help list.

Cheers

No, it just means it was built under a pre-release of R 1.9.0.  If it 
needed features of 1.9.0 it would say so and refuse to load.

Have you read the FAQ?: R-bugs is for bugs, not help questions.

library(sna)

Warning message: 
package sna was built under R version 1.9.0 

What's this message mean?

Probable user error, in exactly the way it says.  Which word do you not
understand?

*You* installed a version of the package sna built under a pre-release of
R 1.9.0.  Packages in R are not necessarily binary compatible with earlier
releases.  Where did you get this installation from?  The Windows (sic)  
version of package sna on CRAN was built under 1.8.0, unless you manually
got the builds for 1.9.x from the bin/windows/contrib/1.9 area on CRAN.

I suggest you remove the package sna and reinstall it as described in the 
rw-FAQ.
