Estoy encontrando diferencias de comportamiento entre dos entornos que ejecutan R 2.12.1. En el primero, el zoológico se comporta como se esperaba.

> library(zoo)
> x.date <- as.Date(paste(2003, 2, c(1, 3, 7, 9, 14), sep = "-"))
    > x <- zoo(rnorm(5), x.date)
    > index(x)
    [1] "2003-02-01" "2003-02-03" "2003-02-07" "2003-02-09" "2003-02-14"
    > as.Date(index(x))
    [1] "2003-02-01" "2003-02-03" "2003-02-07" "2003-02-09" "2003-02-14"
> sessionInfo()
R version 2.12.1 (2010-12-16)
Platform: x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu (64-bit)

locale:

attached base packages:

En el otro me sale el siguiente resultado:

> library(zoo)
> x.date <- as.Date(paste(2003, 2, c(1, 3, 7, 9, 14), sep = "-"))
> x <- zoo(rnorm(5), x.date)
> index(x)

> as.Date(index(x))

No solo es extraño, sino que este último comportamiento genera un mensaje de error de ggplot2. Alguna idea? Gracias por adelantado
