Unable to get aline() working "cannot open file './data/aline_mapset_workingcopy.csv': No such file or directory"

Hi! Thank you for this library, I was hoping there would be an R port of it.

I've tried installing the package as described in the README. However, If I try running the aline(), this happens:

> aline('Verelan', 'Virilon')
Error in file(file, "rt") : cannot open the connection
In addition: Warning message:
In file(file, "rt") :
  cannot open file './data/aline_mapset_workingcopy.csv': No such file or directory

Here's my system information:

Could you help me resolve this?

[thedivtagguy]

I noticed that the files are there in the data repo on GitHub, perhaps this is a packaging issue?

Hi Aman, You're right, this is a packaging issue. I'll resolve this as soon as possible.
