Dear R, I am attempting to install 2.0.1 on a Debian system and getting an error that appeared for people installing 2.0.0.

...run make and get an error that was reported by several people when installing R 2.0.0. Here is the error message > Warning message: > package seems to be using lazy loading already in: > makeLazyLoading("tools") > Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable > ".install_package_description" was not found > Execution halted In October this same error message appeared in several messages and was apparently fixed by a change in src/library/tools/R/admin.R to the 'Built' function. The 2.0.1 version appears to contain those changes. Am I missing something? --Thanks...

Dear R-devel, I have been trying to compile R-2.0.0 on under linux, with the usual ./configure make I get the errors Warning message: package seems to be using lazy loading already in: makeLazyLoading("tools") Error in get(x, envir, mode, inherits) : variable ".install_package_description" was not found Execution halted This same configuration of linux successfully installed and runs R-1.9.1. Any suggestions for where to look for problems? I noticed that someone experienced similar problem under Windows. thanks, Clayton [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

The latter should be a workaround for you in either case. The problem is in .install_package_description: the Built: field must not be split across lines. (The newline does not have to added after ;, so your fix is not 100% adequate.) I've fixed .install_package_description. -- Brian D.
