Dear R Maintainer maintainer,
You are receiving this message because at least one CRAN or
Bioconductor package that you maintain requires revisions due to
deprecations in the forthcoming Matrix version 1.4-2, which you can
install with
> install.packages("Matrix", repos = "http://r-forge.r-project.org/")
Matrix 1.4-2 will formally deprecate 187 coercion methods. More
precisely, coercions of the form
> as(object, Class)
where
* 'object' inherits from the virtual class Matrix, is a traditional
matrix, or is a logical or numeric vector
* 'Class' specifies a non-virtual subclass of Matrix, such as
dgCMatrix, but really any subclass matching the pattern
^[dln]([gts][CRT]|di|ge|tr|sy|tp|sp)Matrix$
will continue to work as before but signal a deprecation message or
warning (_message_ in the widely used dg.Matrix and d.CMatrix cases).
