I am reposting this bug report because I am experiencing it and it has not been resolved.
No code. I am in Rstudio and typing into console, with screeen just cleared (Cntrl-L).

I start typing, first 2 letters (of library
), all good.

as I soon as add b
, screen has this.
Error in base::attr(..., exact = TRUE) :
formal argument "exact" matched by multiple actual arguments
>lib
if I now add r
, message appears twice.
Error in base::attr(..., exact = TRUE) :
formal argument "exact" matched by multiple actual arguments
Error in base::attr(..., exact = TRUE) :

And eventually looks something like this:
...
formal argument "exact" matched by multiple actual arguments
Error in base::attr(..., exact = TRUE) :
formal argument "exact" matched by multiple actual arguments
UE) :
formal argument "exact" matched by multiple actual arguments

The old report claims to have resolved the bug, but the solution involves deactivating autocompletion altogether - clearly not a satisfactory solution. Let me add that removing .Rproj.user or resetting R's desktop state (as proposed by @prubin) don't work.
However, commenting the entire .Rprofile, terminating R, and then running my project's .Rprofile manually, solves the issue. Obviously, I'd like a definitive fix, not a workaround that I have to repeat each time I open RStudio.
