change in R 4.2 disallows a comparison used in xgboost()

[apsteinmetz]

So I got this error when running R xgbboost::xgboost()

Error in is.na(output) || !is.character(output) : 'length = 3' in coercion to 'logical(1)'

While it says "error" it is actually a warning because xgboost()returns a valid result. It seems to be in how the '||' operator behavior was changed in R 4.2. See here for more info:
