[R-pkg-devel] function name conflict
Thanks for the answer. In the process of going back to try making a minimal example, I realized that the problem isn't my package; it already occurs in one of the packages I import. (I could have sworn I checked this previously, but apparently missed the true culprit.) In any event, I'll report a bug to them and suggest more careful use of importFrom to get around it. Best, ?

I also only use one function from each of the two imported pakages, and they are explicitly listed in importFrom directives in the NAMESPACE file.
This should be the right thing to do: list them in Imports and either use importFrom() or qualify the names of the functions you use with their namespaces; but don't list them in Depends. Are you sure you're not importing some other package (or listing it in Depends) that, in turn, Depends on rlang and/or lifecycle, bringing them into your namespace too? Can you show us the code?
