You want to check the file "${R_HOME}/test/Examples/base-Ex.Rout"
but my guess would be that you are picking up an old version of MASS.

Cheers, Jonathan.

Pretty unlikely: MASS ships with 1.6.0 and the test is run with --vanilla
so no other library directory is used (unless you have R_LIBS set in the
environment, not a good idea).  So why pick on MASS?

Hi Brian,

It's what happened to me!  We have a common library on our network that
contained a very old version of MASS, and it is specified in the R_LIBS
variable.  After installing R-1.6.0 I arranged in my .Rprofile to
exchange the order of common/lib/R and ${R_HOME}/library in my search
list but, as you point out, this didn't allow me to run "make check"
without getting caught up with the old version of MASS.

Cheers, Jonathan.

~/.Rprofile is not read under --vanilla, AFAIK. Do you have R_LIBS in your
shell environment?

It's much easier to use .Renviron.
