[R-sig-ME] rBind in lme4

[Paul Johnson]

Dear maintainers:

I got a note from CRAN today saying one of my packages will be removed
because it accesses rBind via lme4.

Did you get the same message?

Dear maintainer,

Please see the problems shown on
<https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_rockchalk.html>.

Please correct before 2018-05-23 to safely retain your package on CRAN.

Best,
-k

who would "you" be?

Indeed, you *should* have imported it from Matrix rather than
lme4, and in Matrix it has been documented to be deprecated --
and you should just use rbind() instead -- since R version
3.2.0 the rBind() "detour" had no longer been necessary.

rBind(1,2)

[1,] 1
[2,] 2
Warning message:
'rBind' is deprecated.
Since R version 3.2.0, base's rbind() should work fine with S4 objects

Sorry, I see my mistake now. I was warning you about a problem that
you were aware of already.

In the lme4 Git repo, Martin committed a patch that removed the usage
of rBind from formatVC on Mar 22, 2018. I thought you had it still
when I asked.

answer.
