I am using xtable version 1.7-1 built for R 3.0.1 on:
R version 3.0.1 (2013-05-16)
Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu (32-bit)
Sometimes, not every time, when I load xtable or attempt to load the
help, I get an error such as this "Error: cannot allocate vector of
size 1.9 Gb" (Stacktrace from recover() below).
Other times, when loading packages that depend on xtable, I get an
error such as this:
Loading required namespace: xtable
Error in assign(identifier, list(name, description, identifier, help, :
lazy-load database 'P' is corrupt
I have attempted to reinstall the package using
install.packages("xtable", type="source"), but the error persists (and
the xtable.rdb file is identical).
I have also tried this on macs and gotten the same error.
Thank you for any help.
