The current coxme code has functions that depend on bdsmatrix and others that depend on Matrix, both those pacakges define S4 methods for diag. When loaded, the message appears: replacing previous import ‘diag’ when loading ‘Matrix’
Questions: 1. Do I need to worry about this? If so, what can I do about it? I suppose I could add an importFrom directive, but it will be a pain unless there is an "allbut(diag)" option I'm not aware of. (I assume that methods and classes can be listed in importFrom, i.e., there are no importMethodsFrom or importClassesFrom functions). 2. If I don't need to worry, is there a way to turn the message off? I as a developer need to see it, but users don't and it may worry them unnecessarily. Updating all 17 of my test/*.Rout.save files is a nuisance as well, but only a nuisance. I'd like to upload this to CRAN soon as I have users asking for the updated lmekin function (which uses Matrix). In the long term all the bdsmatrix functions will be replaced by Matrix, but that requires major changes to C code so "long" is the operative word.
