I’ve pushed updates to the rcdklibs and rcdk packages that support cheminformatics in R using the CDK. The new versions employ the latest CDK master, which as Egon pointed out has significantly fewer bugs, and thanks to Jon, improved performance. New additions to the package include support for the LINGO and Signature fingerprinters (you’ll need the latest version of fingerprint).
John also changed the versioning scheme… 1.5.4.git is not the latest after 1.5.4 but before 1.5.4, in align with Maven practices.
actually, rcdk uses the master branch not the last stable release
