That's likely your R version is out of date: the R version used ( 3.2.4 ) to build these packages is ahead of yours, and so a warning is returned.

You can check your current version either in the preamble when you launch a new session or by typing R.version .

Most of the time it has no practical consequences (for small gaps between R versions), but: i) the function you use may have been affected by version change and ii) it's a good idea to have the last R stable version.
