I am trying to install a local package and get this unexpected
error:
---------- Making package UMSA ------------
adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION
installing R files
installing data files
installing man source files
installing indices
Error: couldn't find function "na.omit"
Execution halted
na.omit of course is in package stats, and that is listed in the
Depends field in the DESCRIPTION file.
What is happening?

Does something in there use (implicitly) na.omit? I have seen something like this (since 2.0.0) where a .R file in the data/ directory used a function within the package, but that function was not 'available' at the "installing indices" phase of the check/build.
