This is a bugfix release to get the package back on CRAN since it was kicked out because of using the deprecated .find.packages()
. This function was used in the helper functions sosCheatSheet()
, sosChanges()
and sosNews()
to open up the cheat sheet document and CHANGES/NEWS files from R command line and is now replaced by find.packages()
, which is part of the actual public API.
My apologies for the inconvenience caused by this delay – R 3.0.0 is really the version to use right now – but I wanted to get some other bugs fixed and some new features in for the next release, which did not work out so far.
As a lesson from this I now created a proper SVN structure with a branch 0.3 for the current development and reverted the trunk to the version currently on CRAN: https://svn.52north.org/svn/geostatistics/main/sos4R/. This will allow future bugfixing without interfering with currently broken development versions.
