...me depends heavily on bdsmatrix, to the point of needing access to some of its C calls. The kinship package (in progress) uses the R level functions in bdsmatrix, but not the C calls. That is, I don't want to always export the symbols. For testing I can use an explicit dyn.load('somepath/bsdmatrix.so', local=F). How do I incorporate such a dependency in the DESCRIPTION file for coxme, so that it happens in general? Terry T.

...version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17) * using session charset: UTF-8 * checking for file 'coxme/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * this is package 'coxme' version '1.0' * checking package name space information ... OK * checking package dependencies ... ERROR Packages required but not available: bsdmatrix Is this an oversight in the check routine? Terry T.

...Deferred_Default_Marker__` ----------------------------------------- Within the library is a definition of %*% for bdsmatrix objects, which is perhaps the issue. But I'm only guessing since I don't have a clear idea what the error message means. Any hints are appreciated. The new coxme/bsdmatrix packages need only a couple more functions to be a complete replacement for kinship, at which point we will depreciate it. (Pedigrees and plotting were finished last weekend!) But I can't quite do that yet. The error does not arise with these newer libraries. There have been no changes to kins...

Where can I find out (and replicate) what options as-cran turns on? The issue: the following lines generate an error in R CMD check --as-cran? for coxme.? But there is no error without as-cran nor is there one when I run the code in a terminal window. ismat <- function(x)? inherits(x, "matrix") || inherits(x, "bdsmatrix") || inherits(x, "Matrix") if
