[R] fftImg() error: fftw_access_func

[John Kane]

It would be helpful if you actually supplied your code and a minimal data set to for people to examine.

Please have a look at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5963269/how-to-make-a-great-r-reproducible-example and/or http://adv-r.had.co.nz/Reproducibility.html.

I'm not clear if you are reporting a general R problem or a specific package with the ripa package.  If it looks like it is the latter you probably bring it to the attention of the package maintainer who may or may not monitor this mailing group.
