I am trying the first example with the R package mlr, which can be found here. But I get the following error message:
> lrn = makeLearner("classif.lda")
Error in substr(packs, 1L + (force.load | force.attach), nchar(packs)) :
4 arguments passed to .Internal(nchar) which requires 3
The session info gives the following output:

Any idea why this error occurs (I am using R version 3.2.0) ?
