If you see this and are a maintainer of one of the above packages, please replace transparent with sequential. The transparent backend should only be used for troubleshooting and never in production.

The transparent strategy is now deprecated in future (>= 1.24.0);

> future::plan("transparent")
Warning message:
Strategy 'transparent' is deprecated in future (>= 1.24.0). It was designed to simplify
interactive troubleshooting, but is now superseeded by plan(sequential, split = TRUE).
Also, as a friendly reminder, the 'transparent' future strategy should only be used for
troubleshooting purposes and never be used in production.
