R devel - Apr 2003 - pacf.mts

I am getting the following:

*** Weave Errors ***
Error in driver$runcode(drobj, chunk, chunkopts) : 
        Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : couldn't find function
"pacf.mts"
*** Source Errors ***
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : couldn't find function
"pacf.mts"
make[1]: *** [checkVignettes] Error 1


I don't really understand the new namespace mechanism, so I am not sure if
this
is a problem with R-1.7.0beta, or because of a change I should be making in my
code. Does it make sense that the generic pacf is found, but not the method
pacf.mts? (I am calling pacf and not pacf.mts.)

yes, that was the idea of "hiding" methods in the namespace,
such that users cannot call the methods directly.

hmm, so I don't see why the problem above happens.
Can you give a bit more details on how you triggered the errors
above ?

Thanks (to everyone else who does) for beta testing R-beta !

I think this is a bug. Sorry I'm still using a version from a couple of
days ago.
