R help - Oct 2006 - debug package in R 2.4.0

Hi.

I recently upgraded to R version 2.4.0, and I have found that the
"debug" package no longer works.  In particular, when I try to debug a
function, I get the following error message:

Error in attr(value, "row.names") <- rlabs :
        row names must be 'character' or 'integer', not
'double'

I have, of course, taken all the necessary preceding steps, such as
issuing the commands
library(debug)
source("test.r")
mtrace(test)
test()

Does anyone know how to get around this problem?

Thanks,
Shlomo.

I can confirm the above behaviour.

Have you tried contacting the package maintainer, as suggested by the 
posting guide? (In this case Mark Bravington, CCed here.)

Hopefully it's fixable. I'm deeply in love with `debug'...
