jmvBaseR module needs updating

Hi,

I am using Jamovi 2.6.45 (solid version). I had a gap of a few months in using it so I went to update modules and found that jmvBaseR was listed as installed but needing to be updated. However, the button was to uninstall. I assumed that it would be available to install if I removed it but it is not listed. I then removed Jamovi and reinstalled it, but this time there is no jmvBaseR module available, not is it installed as part of the default setup. I can find the version on GitHub but I am not sure whether I need it? I haven't seen any impact so far. If I do need it, how do I install it and why was it flagged as needing to be updated/uninstalled? It seems to have gone untouched on GitHub for some time, has it been incorporated into the main app?

Best,
Rick

jmvbaseR was a handful of toy demonstrations of how analyses in "base R" could be easily implemented in jamovi.

if you're not developing modules, it's not really of great interest and you don't need it. if you are developing modules and would like to take a look at it, then you can see it on github.

but it's not something that very many people would be interested in, so we removed it from the library (reduce clutter).

Thanks Jonathon. I wasn't sure of its functionality--the description made it sound like something core but I can see I can just ignore. I found that it worked without it so I was hopeful I hadn't broken it. :)
