API version mismatch

Error in svglite_(file, bg, width, height, pointsize, standalone) : Graphics API version mismatch

I am running R 3.3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04. svgLite is version 1.1.0. The same error occurs when trying to use ggsave to save a .svg.

Any ideas ?

Cheers,

Stefan

I'd recommend reinstalling svglite.

figured out that "reinstalling" doesn't always solve. This must be linked with some internal library issue.
install.packages("svglite") still bugs, but:
install.packages("svglite", type = "source") and recompiling in your environment, solves.
