[R] error in display function of the ARM package

[Kari Ruohonen]

Thank you very much for the answer. Re-installation (I did a full
reinstall of R and packages I use) helped and cured the problem. I had
somehow missed the advice to re-install packages when upgrading to 2.6.0
and had only used update.packages().

regards, Kari
