Looking inside Jan's Dockerfile, it turns out that he is configuring R with ./configure --with-recommended-packages --enable-strict-barrier --disable-long-double and with that I can reproduce: > unique(list(new.env())) Error in unique.default(list(new.env())) : LENGTH or similar applied to environment object --enable-strict-barrier is enough to reproduce the error. -Deepayan ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
