The
read_table2()function will be removed in the next release of readr. It has been deprecated for over 4 years, since readr v2.0.0 (2021-07-20). Since that time, it has just been aliased toread_table()anyway.This is part of a bigger effort to advance a bunch of deprecation processes that started 4+ years ago: tidyverse/readr#1600. I released readr v2.1.6 on 2025-11-14 and have no immediate plans for another release. I just wanted to advanced these deprecations right away, to give downstream dependencies plenty of time to adjust.
I am also sending an email to the maintainer listed in DESCRIPTION.
