While trying to install a package, I received this error
** preparing package for lazy loading
Error in matchSignature(signature, fdef, where) :
more elements in the method signature (2) than in the generic signature (1)
A more helpful variant is
Error in matchSignature(signature, fdef, where) :
more elements in the method signature (2) than in the generic signature (1)
for function 'sort'
which comes from (including removal of an extra space between 'generic'
and
'signature'; I'm not sure what diff I should be providing for the po
files?)
