Changes in version 0.15.5 BUG FIXES o . Changes in version 0.15.4 (2025-02-19) BUG FIXES o Tests in tests/egf_utils.R wrongly relied on the type of the value of a call to seq.int, causing errors under R 4.5. Changes in version 0.15.3 (2024-06-18) DEPRECATED AND DEFUNCT o egf_cache is removed. Serializing objects under tools::R_user_dir("epigrowthfit", "cache") for reuse in examples and tests introduced a race condition when running two or more checks concurrently, and workarounds were not appealing. INSTALLATION o emdbook is removed from the Suggests field of DESCRIPTION. A full check of the package requires only TMB and its dependencies. Changes in version 0.15.2 (2024-04-25) BUG FIXES o Use \donttest for examples in man/profile.egf.Rd, which remained too long. o Include URL in man/covid19.ontario.Rd with \verb instead of \href to avoid HTTP 403. Changes in version 0.15.1 BUG FIXES o Expand Description field in DESCRIPTION. o Add \value tags to two man/*.Rd. o Clean up after par calls in plot method. o Do not assign to global environment in simulate methods.
