R Project Updates

Updates from R Core:

  • 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).

  • Sys.timezone() is now used to find the system timezone to pass to the code used when R is configured with --with-internal-tzcode.

  • power.prop.test() now warns when it cannot solve the problem, typically because of impossible constraints. (PR#17345)

  • Sys.timezone(location = FALSE) is defunct, and is ignored (with a warning).
