Error using clear_script_objects

[tin900]

It appears that clear_script_objects() does not work.

See error message:

Error in this.path::this.path() : 
  object 'lines' of mode 'character' was not found

And after re-running:

Error in normalizePath(path.expand(path), winslash, mustWork) : 
  path[1]="....../vusaverse-vusa-731e6f2/R/clear_objects.R": The system cannot find the path specified

I gather it is an issue with the underlying this.path package.

CHANGES IN this.path 2.0.0 (2023-08-08):

SIGNIFICANT USER-VISIBLE CHANGES:

* this.path() was misleading users into believing it returns the
  path of the script in which it is written. In actuality, it
  returns the path of the executing script. As such, it was renamed
  to sys.path() in accordance with the other call stack inspection
  functions sys.call(), sys.frame(), sys.nframe(), and
  sys.function(). Related functions that were renamed:

          old                    new
    [1,]  this.dir               sys.dir
    [2,]  here                   sys.here
    [3,]  this.proj              sys.proj
    [4,]  rel2here               rel2sys.dir
    [5,]  LINENO                 sys.LINENO
    [6,]  try.this.path          try.sys.path
    [7,]  set.this.path          set.sys.path
    [8,]  unset.this.path        unset.sys.path
    [9,]  set.this.path.jupyter  set.sys.path.jupyter

  this.path() was replaced by a function that returns the path of
  the script in which it is written. It does this by looking for a
  source reference with an appropriate source file, or inspects the
  environment in which it is called for an associated path, or
  returns the path of the executing script, as before. Related
  functions that were replaced:

    [1]  this.dir   here        ici            this.proj
    [5]  rel2here   LINENO      try.this.path  check.path
    [9]  check.dir  check.proj

Try to use this.path::sys.path() instead
