G'day
There's a bug in R-devel help() when something is documented in multiple
places. Eg
library( gmp)
?apply
The browser window then contains:
Error in length(packages):"Help on topic '%s' was found in the following
package:" :
NA/NaN argument
Also, the *next* time 'help' or '?' is called (even with eg '?glm'), the
following warning message appears in the R console.
Warning message:
In ngettext(length(packages):"Help on topic '%s' was found in the following
package:", :
NAs introduced by coercion
This is on build 61745, but has been around for a while. All good in R 2.15.2
(the browser says there's help in several places, and you get to pick). I'm
using windows XP and Firefox as the browser, but the error message looks more
general.
Now fixed in r61770. It was a typo introduced in a change back in
September having to do with internationalization. Thanks for the report.
