Select() from stan_model clashes with org.Hs.egPFAM

from R Calling internal function from an exported function inside package - Stack Overflow

"
But I read that using :::is not recommended.

I think you mention this based on the following statement in the manual for writing packages by R.

Using foo:::f instead of foo::f allows access to unexported objects. This is generally not recommended, as the semantics of unexported objects may be changed by the package author in routine maintenance.

I might have identified the function, @jonah

And it might be third party fault

Does this function name ring any bell? (from https://rdrr.io/github/Bioconductor-mirror/AnnotationDbi/src/R/AnnDbPkg-templates-common.R)

warnIfDef <- function(){
    if(grepl("PFAM",x)){
        bimapName <- paste0(prefix,"PFAM")
    }else{
         bimapName <- paste0(prefix,"PROSITE")
    }
    x <- dc[[bimapName]]
    msg = wmsg(paste0(bimapName,
 " is defunct. ",
 "Please use select() if you need access to PFAM or PROSITE accessions. \n"))
    if(interactive()){
        .Defunct(msg=msg)
    }
}

I’ve never seen that warnIfDef. It looks like it stems from something triggered by calling apropos(). But that’s a function in the utils package (which is basically part of core R).
