The problem is due to a change in the fkf function interface (from FKF package) and it can be resolved by installing the 0.1.7 revision of FKF package from its archive page https://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/Archive/FKF/ .

The next release of gEcon.estimation package will accomodate this change and will be compatible with the newest version of FKF on CRAN.

When installing gEcon.estimation, a warning appears but shows that the installation was successful.

However, when a Bayesian estimate is made, the a posteriometric estimate cannot be made, and the following error occurs:



Initial values of parameters for estimation
Initial value
sd(epsilon_Z) 0.0012
sd(epsilon_G) 0.0060
omega 1.5000
phi_G 0.9500
phi_Z 0.9500

Initial values of the parameters:

Error in fkf(a0 = x_0, P0 = MSE_0, ct = rep(0, n), dt = rep(0, n_vars), :

My computer and software version is macOS10.14.6 & R3.6.3 & gEcon1.2.0 & gEcon.estimation 0.1.0
