In what sense is this a bug? *Please* read the description of BUGS in the
FAQ.
Note:
> library(Matrix)
> getS3method("solve", "Matrix")
function (a, b, tol = 0, transpose = FALSE, ...)
{
if (missing(b))
return(.Call("R_LapackPP_solve", a, NULL, PACKAGE =
"Matrix"))
.Call("R_LapackPP_solve", a, b, PACKAGE = "Matrix")
}
<environment: namespace:Matrix>
It's a *method* and is meant only to be called via the generic solve().
