However, ff and ffbase have quite a big impact on the R search path, so we would like to Import them rather than say 'Depends' in the description file. (There's also the huge amount of warnings that are thrown when loading the packages that are a bit ugly)\r\n\r\nMost things work by using explicit package references, for example `ff::as.ram.ff()`, but some others don't. Would it be possible to fix those? \r\n\r\nHere's the list I have so far:\r\n  - ffbase::save.ffdf() has a dependency on bit that is not explicit.
