[Rcpp-devel] package build error on r-forge linking to RcppArmadillo

[Kasper Daniel Hansen]

See some previous discussion of this which I raised.

Essentially, Rcpp has been updated and this requires RcppArmadillo to
be re-installed.  I don't think RcppArmadillo has been updated per se,
and this is why nothing has triggered a re-install.

So either R-forge re-installs RcppArmadillo, which I don't know if you
could get them to, or you wait until RcppArmdillo is updated (thereby
triggering a reinstall). There is nothing you can do apart from
appealing to the powers that be.
