Conrad released a new upstream release
4.200 for Armadillo, his templated C++
library for linear algebra, earlier today.
As usual, this was rolled up in a new
RcppArmadillo
release 0.4.200.0; I had actually made two pre-releases leading up his 4.200
release and was hence not expecting any surprises. Prior to uploading to
CRAN, I also tested against all 61
reverse dependencies of the package. Last but not least, I also updated the
corresponding Debian package.
