The C-level API version of R's ‘integrate()’, ‘Rdqags()’ in ‘Applic.h’, now returns the correct number of integrand evaluations ‘neval’, fixing PR#18515 reported and diagnosed by Stephen Wade.
The C prototypes for LAPACK calls ‘dspgv’ and ‘dtptrs’ in ‘R_exts/Lapack.h’ had one too many and one too few character length arguments - but this has not caused any known issues. To get the corrected prototypes, include
#include <Rconfig.h> // for PR18534fixed #ifdef PR18534fixed # define usePR18534fix 1 #endif #include <R_exts/Lapack.h>
in your C/C++ code (PR#18534).
Many of the checks of esoteric Internet operations and those using unreliable external sites have been moved to a new target that is not run by default and primarily intended for the core developers. To run them use
cd tests; make test-Internet-dev
‘.S3methods()’, typically called from ‘methods()’, again marks methods from package ‘base’ as ‘visible’.
‘tools::Rdiff()’ is now more robust against invalid strings, fixing installation tests on Windows without Rtools installed (PR#18530).
Fix (new) bug in ‘hcl.colors(2, *)’, by Achim Zeileis (PR#18523).
