There is a call to mosek and I assumed that this wasn’t going to be helpful for most R-devel recipients. I tried Duncan’s very reasonable suggestion about options() but it didn’t produce the desired error, so perhaps this isn’t really a warning but something else???
For those who might have rmosek installed, I’m doing: library(REBayes) demo(GLmix1) Thanks, Roger > On Oct 3, 2023, at 6:17 PM, Martin Maechler <maech...@stat.math.ethz.ch> > wrote: > >>>>>> Duncan Murdoch >>>>>> on Tue, 3 Oct 2023 12:59:10 -0400 writes: > >> On 03/10/2023 12:50 p.m., Koenker, Roger W wrote: >>> I’ve been getting this warning for a while now (about >>> five years if memory serves) and I’m finally tired of it, >>> but also too tired to track it down in Matrix.
