Thanks for pointing into that direction - I'll have a look and investigate! ``` library(validate) ``` shows only masking for `compare` ? ``` Attaching package: ‘validate’ The following object is...

Unloaded everything, still the same: ``` R> sessionInfo() R version 4.0.4 (2021-02-15) Platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit) Running under: Ubuntu 18.04.5 LTS Matrix products: default BLAS: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/openblas/libblas.so.3 LAPACK: /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libopenblasp-r0.2.20.so locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8...

Same with a vanilla(!) R: ```bash $> R --vanilla -e "library(validate);sessionInfo();validator(x > 0)" R version 4.0.4 (2021-02-15) -- "Lost Library Book" [snip] > library(validate);sessionInfo();validator(x > 0) R version 4.0.4 (2021-02-15)...

The line causing this seems to be https://github.com/data-cleaning/validate/blob/b9350b0843f96fcc5b4bfad6d5cc574ae529dacf/pkg/R/validator.R#L97 and this is clearly a "character". ``` meta `meta showMethods("meta

That's weird, R & packages versions seem to same. Differences are only - OS (20.04 vs 18.04) - locales - BLAS all of which I can't believe beeing the root...

Hmm, I don't understand the problem....

Thanks @knacht for the information and the work you've done with STOFF-Ident and the API. As soon as I find the time (not before August) I will implement an interface...

possible conflict with terms of use....

what about mgcv::gam / mgcv::bam? I don't think g they fit into the exiting linear_reg()? If I'd like to contribute, what would be the best startpoint?
