R help - Nov 2008 - Namespaces of imported packages

Hi,
 
I am trying to build an R package. My existing code makes use of the
bitops and chron packages. So I have included statements to import
required functionality into the NAMESPACE file using import(). When I
run Rcmd build, and error is generated "Error: package 'bitops'
does not
have a name space"
 
I exclude the import(bitops) statement from the NAMESPACE file and
rebuild without error. I am just curious as to why I get an error when
importing bitops into the namespace of the current build? Including
chron package builds fine.
 
Thanks in advance,
Dave

Obviously, your version of "chron" has a namespace while your version
of
"bitops" has not ....
