Since mechanics is now officially unmaintained [1], this bug can be closed as Wont fix ?

None really - thought I might take a look at it and see what the issues were.

Yes, sorry.

I will be abandoning the mechanics package. What functions do you need form it?

Thanks for the report.

I will be looking into improving the packaging of mechanics and giving it a more mature structure asap.
