'Object not found' error when loading party package in R

Question

I'm trying to load the party package in R. I have all the relevant dependencies installed, but when I type library(party), I get the error:

Error in loadNamespace(i, c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[i]]) : object 'vI' not found
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘party’

I've never seen an error like this when loading a package before, and I'm really at a loss. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unfortunately, I'm using a controlled computer at work, so installing/updating packages using a remote repository doesn't seem to work. — Amanda, May 30 '14 at 17:55
I've just hit this one myself, shortly after changing systems. I'm getting it when installing from a local package, but not when installing the same package from CRAN ... — Ben Bolker, Jun 07 '14 at 21:44
as it turns out this was an obscure VirtualBox issue (went away when I moved my R library/package tree from a symbolic-linked directory to one within the native VirtualBox file system) — Ben Bolker, Jun 08 '14 at 00:38

Sys.getenv("vI_HOME")

if(Sys.getenv("vI_HOME")!="")    Sys.setenv(vI_HOME="")

Please install party package separately. So use:

install.packages("party", dependencies=TRUE)
