+Make sure that dependency [packrat](https://github.com/rstudio/packrat) is 
+installed from GitHub in version `0.7.0`, as in later versions the behavior of 
+`packrat:::recursivePackageDependencies()` changed and is incompatible with this 
+package. 
+
+To do in later releases: check what has been changed or check alternative approaches 
+for finding the reverse dependencies.
