- upstrem updated to 3.4.4
CHANGES IN R 3.4.4:
NEW FEATURES:
* Sys.timezone() tries more heuristics on Unix-alikes and so is
more likely to succeed (especially on Linux). For the slowest
method, a warning is given recommending that TZ is set to avoid
the search.
* The version of LAPACK included in the sources has been updated to
3.8.0 (for the routines used by R, a very minor bug-fix change).
* parallel::detectCores(logical = FALSE) is ignored on Linux
systems, since the information is not available with virtualized
OSes.
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* configure will use pkg-config to find the flags to link to jpeg
if available (as it should be for the recently-released jpeg-9c
and libjpeg-turbo). (This amends the code added in R 3.3.0 as
the module name in jpeg-9c is not what that tested for.)
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* Sys.timezone(location = FALSE) (which was a stop-gap measure for
Windows long ago) is deprecated. It no longer returns the value
of environment variable TZ (usually a location).
* Legacy support of make macros such as CXX1X is formally
deprecated: use the CXX11 forms instead.
BUG FIXES:
* power.prop.test() now warns when it cannot solve the problem,
typically because of impossible constraints. (PR#17345)
* removeSource() no longer erroneously removes NULL in certain
cases, thanks to D'enes T'oth.
* nls(`NO [mol/l]` ~ f(t)) and nls(y ~ a) now work. (Partly from
PR#17367)

- upstream updated to 3.4.3
CHANGES IN R 3.4.3:
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* A workaround has been added for the changes in location of
time-zone files in macOS 10.13 'High Sierra' and again in
10.13.1, so the default time zone is deduced correctly from the
system setting when R is configured with --with-internal-tzcode
(the default on macOS).
* R CMD javareconf has been updated to recognize the use of a Java
9 SDK on macOS.
BUG FIXES:
* raw(0) & raw(0) and raw(0) | raw(0) again return raw(0) (rather
than logical(0)).
* intToUtf8() converts integers corresponding to surrogate code
points to NA rather than invalid UTF-8, as well as values larger
than the current Unicode maximum of 0x10FFFF. (This aligns with
the current RFC3629.)
* Fix calling of methods on S4 generics that dispatch on ... when
the call contains ....
* Following Unicode 'Corrigendum 9', the UTF-8 representations of
U+FFFE and U+FFFF are now regarded as valid by utf8ToInt().
* range(c(TRUE, NA), finite = TRUE) and similar no longer return
NA. (Reported by Lukas Stadler.)
* The self starting function attr(SSlogis, "initial") now also
works when the y values have exact minimum zero and is slightly
changed in general, behaving symmetrically in the y range.
* The printing of named raw vectors is now formatted nicely as for
other such atomic vectors, thanks to Lukas Stadler.

- upstream update to 3.4.2
CHANGES IN R 3.4.2:
NEW FEATURES:
* Setting the LC_ALL category in Sys.setlocale() invalidates any
cached locale-specific day/month names and the AM/PM indicator
for strptime() (as setting LC_TIME has since R 3.1.0).
* The version of LAPACK included in the sources has been updated to
3.7.1, a bug-fix release.
* The default for tools::write_PACKAGES(rds_compress=) has been
changed to "xz" to match the compression used by CRAN.
* c() and unlist() are now more efficient in constructing the
names(.) of their return value, thanks to a proposal by Suharto
Anggono. (PR#17284)
UTILITIES:
* R CMD check checks for and R CMD build corrects CRLF line endings
in shell scripts configure and cleanup (even on Windows).
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* The order of selection of OpenMP flags has been changed: Oracle
Developer Studio 12.5 accepts -fopenmp and -xopenmp but only the
latter enables OpenMP so it is now tried first.
BUG FIXES:
* within(List, rm(x1, x2)) works correctly again, including when
List[["x2"]] is NULL.
* regexec(pattern, text, *) now applies as.character(.) to its
first two arguments, as documented.
* write.table() and related functions, writeLines(), and perhaps
other functions writing text to connections did not signal errors
when the writes failed, e.g. due to a disk being full. Errors
will now be signalled if detected during the write, warnings if
detected when the connection is closed. (PR#17243)

CHANGES IN R 3.4.1:
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* The deprecated support for PCRE versions older than 8.20 has been
removed.
BUG FIXES:
* getParseData() gave incorrect column information when code
contained multi-byte characters. (PR#17254)
* Asking for help using expressions like ?stats::cor() did not
work. (PR#17250)
* readRDS(url(....)) now works.
* R CMD Sweave again returns status = 0 on successful completion.
* Vignettes listed in .Rbuildignore were not being ignored
properly. (PR#17246)
* file.mtime() no longer returns NA on Windows when the file or
directory is being used by another process. This affected
installed.packages(), which is now protected against this.
* R CMD INSTALL Windows .zip file obeys --lock and --pkglock flags.
* (Windows only) The choose.files() function could return incorrect
results when called with multi = FALSE. (PR#17270)
* aggregate(<data.frame>, drop = FALSE) now also works in case of
near-equal numbers in by. (PR#16918)
* fourfoldplot() could encounter integer overflow when calculating
the odds ratio. (PR#17286)
* parse() no longer gives spurious warnings when extracting srcrefs
from a file not encoded in the current locale.
This was seen from R CMD check with inst/doc/*.R files, and check
has some additional protection for such files.
* print.noquote(x) now always returns its argument x (invisibly).
* Non-UTF-8 multibyte character sets were not handled properly in

- upstream update to 3.4.0
CHANGES IN R 3.4.0:
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
* (Unix-alike) The default methods for download.file() and url()
now choose "libcurl" except for file:// URLs. There will be
small changes in the format and wording of messages, including in
rare cases if an issue is a warning or an error. For example,
when HTTP re-direction occurs, some messages refer to the final
URL rather than the specified one.
Those who use proxies should check that their settings are
compatible (see ?download.file: the most commonly used forms work
for both "internal" and "libcurl").
* table() has been amended to be more internally consistent and
become back compatible to R <= 2.7.2 again. Consequently,
table(1:2, exclude = NULL) no longer contains a zero count for
<NA>, but useNA = "always" continues to do so.
* summary.default() no longer rounds, but its print method does
resulting in less extraneous rounding, notably of numbers in the
ten thousands.
* factor(x, exclude = L) behaves more rationally when x or L are
character vectors. Further, exclude = <factor> now behaves as
documented for long.
* Arithmetic, logic (&, |) and comparison (aka 'relational', e.g.,
<, ==) operations with arrays now behave consistently, notably
for arrays of length zero.
Arithmetic between length-1 arrays and longer non-arrays had
silently dropped the array attributes and recycled. This now
gives a warning and will signal an error in the future, as it has
always for logic and comparison operations in these cases (e.g.,
compare matrix(1,1) + 2:3 and matrix(1,1) < 2:3).

CHANGES IN R 3.3.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* Changes when redirection of a http:// URL to a https:// URL is
encountered:
* The internal methods of download.file() and url() now report
that they cannot follow this (rather than failing silently).
* (Unix-alike) download.file(method = "auto") (the default)
re-tries with method = "libcurl".
* (Unix-alike) url(method = "default") with an explicit open
argument re-tries with method = "libcurl". This covers many
of the usages, e.g. readLines() with a URL argument.
INSTALLATION on a UNIX-ALIKE:
* The configure check for the zlib version is now robust to
versions longer than 5 characters, including 1.2.11.
UTILITIES:
* Environmental variable _R_CHECK_TESTS_NLINES_ controls how R CMD
check reports failing tests (see SS8 of the 'R Internals' manual).
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
* (C-level Native routine registration.) The undocumented styles
field of the components of R_CMethodDef and R_FortranMethodDef is
deprecated.
BUG FIXES:
* vapply(x, *) now works with long vectors x. (PR#17174)
* isS3method("is.na.data.frame") and similar are correct now.

CHANGES IN R 3.3.2:
NEW FEATURES:
* extSoftVersion() now reports the version (if any) of the readline
library in use.
* The version of LAPACK included in the sources has been updated to
3.6.1, a bug-fix release including a speedup for the
non-symmetric case of eigen().
* Use options(deparse.max.lines=) to limit the number of lines
recorded in .Traceback and other deparsing activities.
* format(<AsIs>) looks more regular, also for non-character atomic
matrices.
* abbreviate() gains an option named = TRUE.
* The online documentation for package methods is extensively
rewritten. The goals are to simplify documentation for basic
use, to note old features not recommended and to correct
out-of-date information.
* Calls to setMethod() no longer print a message when creating a
generic function in those cases where that is natural: S3
generics and primitives.
INSTALLATION and INCLUDED SOFTWARE:
* Versions of the readline library >= 6.3 had been changed so that
terminal window resizes were not signalled to readline: code has
been added using a explicit signal handler to work around that
(when R is compiled against readline >= 6.3). (PR#16604)
* configure works better with Oracle Developer Studio 12.5.
UTILITIES:
* R CMD check reports more dubious flags in files
src/Makevars[.in], including -w and -g.

CHANGES IN R 3.3.1:
BUG FIXES:
* R CMD INSTALL and hence install.packages() gave an internal error
installing a package called description from a tarball on a
case-insensitive file system.
* match(x, t) (and hence x %in% t) failed when x was of length one,
and either character and x and t only differed in their Encoding
or when x and t where complex with NAs or NaNs. (PR#16885.)
* unloadNamespace(ns) also works again when ns is a 'namespace', as
from getNamespace().
* rgamma(1,Inf) or rgamma(1, 0,0) no longer give NaN but the
correct limit.
* length(baseenv()) is correct now.
* pretty(d, ..) for date-time d rarely failed when "halfmonth" time
steps were tried (PR#16923) and on 'inaccurate' platforms such as
32-bit windows or a configuration with --disable-long-double; see
comment #15 of PR#16761.
* In text.default(x, y, labels), the rarely(?) used default for
labels is now correct also for the case of a 2-column matrix x
and missing y.
* as.factor(c(a = 1L)) preserves names() again as in R < 3.1.0.
* strtrim(""[0], 0[0]) now works.
* Use of Ctrl-C to terminate a reverse incremental search started
by Ctrl-R in the readline-based Unix terminal interface is now
supported for readline >= 6.3 (Ctrl-G always worked). (PR#16603)
* diff(<difftime>) now keeps the "units" attribute, as subtraction
already did, PR#16940.

CHANGES IN R 3.3.0:
SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:
* nchar(x, *)'s argument keepNA governing how the result for NAs in
x is determined, gets a new default keepNA = NA which returns NA
where x is NA, except for type = "width" which still returns 2,
the formatting / printing width of NA.
* All builds have support for https: URLs in the default methods
for download.file(), url() and code making use of them.
Unfortunately that cannot guarantee that any particular https:
URL can be accessed. For example, server and client have to
successfully negotiate a cryptographic protocol (TLS/SSL, ...)

Unfortunately that cannot guarantee that any particular https:
URL can be accessed. For example, server and client have to
successfully negotiate a cryptographic protocol (TLS/SSL, ...)
and the server's identity has to be verifiable _via_ the
available certificates. Different access methods may allow
different protocols or use private certificate bundles: we
encountered a https: CRAN mirror which could be accessed by one
browser but not by another nor by download.file() on the same
Linux machine.
NEW FEATURES:
* The print method for methods() gains a byclass argument.
* New functions validEnc() and validUTF8() to give access to the
validity checks for inputs used by grep() and friends.
* Experimental new functionality for S3 method checking, notably
isS3method().
Also, the names of the R 'language elements' are exported as
character vector tools::langElts.
* str(x) now displays "Time-Series" also for matrix (multivariate)
time-series, i.e. when is.ts(x) is true.
* (Windows only) The GUI menu item to install local packages now
accepts *.tar.gz files as well as *.zip files (but defaults to

BUG FIXES:
• format.POSIXlt() behaved incorrectly in R 3.2.4. E.g. the output
of format(as.POSIXlt(paste0(1940:2000,"-01-01"), tz = "CET"),
usetz = TRUE) ended in two "CEST" time formats.
• A typo in the Makefile for src/extra/xz prevented builds of
liblzma.a. (Notice that this will become unbundled in 3.3.0.)

- upstrem releases minorst bug fix release
NEWS: The 3.2.4 release had two annoyances which we would rather
not have in an "ultra-stable" release, designed to hang around
for the duration of the 3.3 series. One was a relatively minor
Makefile issue affecting system using R's bundled lzma library.
The other, rather more serious, affected printing and formatting
of POSIXlt objects, which would unpredictably get the Daylight
Savings Time wrong.
- Some version numbers of recommended packages corrected
- Release numbers for sub-packages improved
- added MakefileTypo.patch to enable building for 12.2
was a one charcter show stopper
- upstream release 3.2.4, only minor improvements
CHANGES IN R 3.2.4:
NEW FEATURES:
• install.packages() and related functions now give a more
informative warning when an attempt is made to install a base
package.
• summary(x) now prints with less rounding when x contains infinite
values. (Request of PR#16620.)
• provideDimnames() gets an optional unique argument.
• shQuote() gains type = "cmd2" for quoting in cmd.exe in Windows.
(Response to PR#16636.)
• The data.frame method of rbind() gains an optional argument
stringsAsFactors (instead of only depending on
getOption("stringsAsFactors")).

• smooth(x, *) now also works for long vectors.
• tools::texi2dvi() has a workaround for problems with the texi2dvi
script supplied by texinfo 6.1.
It extracts more error messages from the LaTeX logs when in
emulation mode.
UTILITIES:
• R CMD check will leave a log file build_vignettes.log from the
re-building of vignettes in the .Rcheck directory if there is a
problem, and always if environment variable
_R_CHECK_ALWAYS_LOG_VIGNETTE_OUTPUT_ is set to a true value.
DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT:
• Use of SUPPORT_OPENMP from header Rconfig.h is deprecated in
favour of the standard OpenMP define _OPENMP.
(This has been the recommendation in the manual for a while now.)
• The make macro AWK which is long unused by R itself but recorded
in file etc/Makeconf is deprecated and will be removed in R

CHANGES IN R 3.2.3:
NEW FEATURES:
* Some recently-added Windows time zone names have been added to
the conversion table used to convert these to Olson names.
(Including those relating to changes for Russia in Oct 2014, as
in PR#16503.)
* (Windows) Compatibility information has been added to the
manifests for Rgui.exe, Rterm.exe and Rscript.exe. This should
allow win.version() and Sys.info() to report the actual Windows
version up to Windows 10.
* Windows "wininet" FTP first tries EPSV / PASV mode rather than
only using active mode (reported by Dan Tenenbaum).
* which.min(x) and which.max(x) may be much faster for logical and
integer x and now also work for long vectors.
* The 'emulation' part of tools::texi2dvi() has been somewhat
enhanced, including supporting quiet = TRUE. It can be selected
by texi2dvi = "emulation".
(Windows) MiKTeX removed its texi2dvi.exe command in Sept 2015:
tools::texi2dvi() tries texify.exe if it is not found.
* (Windows only) Shortcuts for printing and saving have been added
to menus in Rgui.exe. (Request of PR#16572.)
* loess(..., iterTrace=TRUE) now provides diagnostics for
robustness iterations, and the print() method for
summary(<loess>) shows slightly more.
* The included version of PCRE has been updated to 8.38, a bug-fix
release.
* View() now displays nested data frames in a more friendly way.
(Request with patch in PR#15915.)
