Error while trying to use 'ez' library

Question

I've error while trying to call ez library for rAnova, the issue that I cannot found pbkrtest package while I executed with success install.packages("ez"). library(ez) return to me the following error :

 Error in loadNamespace (j <- i [[1L]], c (lib.loc, .libPaths ()) = vI VERSIONCHECK [[j]]):   no package named 'pbkrtest' is found
    In addition: Warning message: package 'ez' was compiled with version 3.2.5 R         Error: loading the package or namespace failed for 'ez'

How can I properly use this library ? Thanks

but still the same error (above) when tape library(ez).

Yes : Warning message: package ‘pbkrtest’ is not available (for R version 3.2.2) Is it linked to the version ? — ranell, Oct 05 '16 at 18:19
I am unable to reproduce this error. Just a simple `install.packages("ez");library(ez)` worked fine for me. I'm running R 3.3.1 on Ubuntu 14.04.5. It might be helpful to post your `sessionInfo()`. — ytk, Oct 05 '16 at 18:28
That error in your `sessionInfo()` seems pretty weird, I've never seen that before. Maybe you could do a google search for those error messages? I don't know french, so I'm not sure what they mean. Have you tried restarting your R session? — ytk, Oct 05 '16 at 18:53
Sorry, I was not aware about langague. I tried to translate it. EDIT 2 for sessionInfo() after restarting R. I think I should change R version but not sure. — ranell, Oct 05 '16 at 19:41

So it seems that was a question of R version. As noticed in the error and as I understood 'ez' was compiled with version 3.2.5 R. So now i'm under 3.3.1 and I intalled EZ with success and can load the library and use the function. The more complicated is to reinstall R and all packages that seems painful, but thanks to this great post that allow me to store all my packages in a temp folder and to reinstall them in the newest version

For information if it could help someone else, my Sessioninfo() returns :
