R help - Nov 2005 - package kinship - %*%

Hello,
I like to use the package "kinship" (R version 2.2.0). After loading
this package the operator %*% doesn't work.

Example:
R> library(kinship)
R> a <- cbind(1:2,rnorm(2))
R> a%*%a
Error message:
Fehler in a %*% a : keine anwendbare Methode f侟r "%*%"

The Message in English: Error in a %*% a: no applicable message for
"%*%".

What can I do?

Thank you.

1. Ask the package maintainer of kinship for a bugfix (CCing).
2. you can still use the "%*%" operator from the base namespace:
  base::"%*%"(a,a)
