Hi All, I have a fix to this bug ( https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla3/show_bug.cgi?id=16454) and would like to submit a patch to the bug report on Bugzilla. I'd also like to start going through some of the other Windows-specific issues and start fixing those. The bug submission instructions indicate that I should ask here for a Bugzilla account. Is that still the correct procedure? Thanks!

I'd be curious to know what others think of Rich's patch. If it is acceptable, I can spend time that I was going to look at it this week on another bug. -----Original Message----- From: Rich Calaway Sent: Friday, June 23, 2017 6:34 PM To: Nathan Sosnovske <nsosnov at microsoft.com>; Duncan Murdoch <murdoch.duncan at gmail.com>; Andrie de Vries <apdevries at gmail.com> Cc: Ben Marwick <bmarwick at uw.edu>; R-devel Mailing List (r-devel at r-project.org) <r-devel at r-project.org> Subject: RE: [Rd] suggestion to fix pack...

Hi Duncan, I'm guessing I'll be able to look at this over the weekend/next week (probably closer to next week). It is on my list of things to do and I've just had a few other prior commitments that I have to finish first. Sorry for the delay. I'll chime in with a status update next week.

The best way to test on Windows would probably be creating a small virtual hard disk (via CreateVirtualDisk), mounting it, and writing to the mounted location. I believe the drive could even be mounted to an arbitrary location on the filesystem (instead of a drive letter) so that drive letter conflicts don't come into play. -----Original Message----- From: R-devel [mailto:r-devel-bounces at

I would really like the bug fixed. At least this one, because I know people in my institute using this function. I understand your arguments about open source, but I also saw in this mail list a proposal for a fix for this bug for which there were no answer from the people who are able to include it in the distribution. It looks like if there were interesting bugs and the other ones. I don't

This doesn't really strike me as a bug. Lots of (most?) programming languages expect you to handle this as an error condition. If you tried the same thing in C you would get the same error. -----Original Message----- From: R-devel [mailto:r-devel-bounces at r-project.org] On Behalf Of Lipatz Jean-Luc Sent: Tuesday, July 4, 2017 5:40 AM To: Duncan Murdoch <murdoch.duncan at gmail.com>
