[Rcpp-devel] Any recent change that would remove Rcpp_precious_remove?

[Simon Urbanek]

Dominick,

in that case this would be best reported on R-SIG-Mac. I just happen to be on this list so it worked ;). 

Re-building RInside seems to fix the issue, now updated.

While I have you here, unrelated, but please note that linking to packages dynamically is not supported (see R-exts 5.8), so your makefile needs to be fixed to use static libRInside.a (and RInside shouldn't be really creating or installing .dylib at all as it cannot be used reliably). 

Cheers,
Simon

None of the posted queries seem to have a solution, one person said restarting RStudio helped, but not in my case. The SO question I found was marked as deleted. The GitHub issue I found was "I solved it" but no mention of how. The SO question was asking about svg export: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68345118/exporting-a-ggplot-in-svg-call-a-non-esixting-function <https://stackoverflow.com/questions/68345118/exporting-a-ggplot-in-svg-call-a-non-esixting-function>
