| Description: |
It is not uncommon for users to confuse 32- and 64-bit packages. The error return from package require is not very informative in that case and can send the user on a wild goose chase looking for missing DLL's auto_path values etc. This is a reminder to myself to add a better hint in the error message to the user as to what might be wrong. | |||
