Just installed the latest R-patched and get the error seen at the end of the output below. Don't know what to make of this but thought I should report it. In general, when installing the latest version of R, should one use R-latest or R-patched? R-latest is stable, but one would assume that R-patched includes the latest bug fixes. Mark
