Under R version 2.4.0 (2006-08-30 r39024), sp fails CMD check following the latest changes in methods.
The failures are in running examples and occur in CMD check: > data(state) > dd2dms(state.center$x) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "initialize", for signature "integer" Offending code: deg <- as(floor(dd), "integer") After replacing by as.integer(floor(dd)), it fails on the local class definition: > dd2dms(state.center$x) Error in function (classes, fdef, mtable) : unable to find an inherited method for function "initialize", for signature "DMS" Installing sp, example("DMS-class") runs successfully interactively (other examples do too). The methods package is declared as Depends: in DESCRIPTION, and import(methods) in NAMESPACE; .onLoad <- function(lib, pkg) require(methods) is in the first R source file in Collate: order. Should the methods package be being invoked in some other way, is there a reason why the installed package appears to run examples successfully that fail under CMD check?
