fails to compare version on linux blocking initialize and install

[latot]

• rgee version: Git
• R version: 4.4.2
• Operating System: Ubuntu Noble

Hi, I was trying to initialize the project normally but I got:

rgee::ee_install(py_env="rgee")
──────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────── Python configuration used to create rgee ──
python:         /home/cit_16/.local/share/r-miniconda/envs/r-reticulate/bin/python

1. Removing the previous Python Environment (rgee), if it exists ...
rgee not found 


2. Creating a Python Environment (rgee)
Error en value[[3L]](cond): 
  An error occur when ee_install was creating the Python Environment. Run ee_clean_pyenv() and restart the R session, before trying again.

6: stop("An error occur when ee_install was creating the Python Environment. ", 
       "Run ee_clean_pyenv() and restart the R session, before trying again.")
5: value[[3L]](cond)
4: tryCatchOne(expr, names, parentenv, handlers[[1L]])
3: tryCatchList(expr, classes, parentenv, handlers)
2: tryCatch(expr = ee_install_create_pyenv(python_version = python_version, 
       py_env = py_env), error = function(e) stop("An error occur when ee_install was creating the Python Environment. ", 
       "Run ee_clean_pyenv() and restart the R session, before trying again."))
1: rgee::ee_install(py_env = "rgee")

After debug and debug I reached the function ee_check_python, where fails:

py_version <- py_discover_config()[["version"]]
....
  if (utils::compareVersion(py_version, "3.5") == -1) {
...

Fails the utils function with strsplit(a, "[.-]"), because of the type of py_version is not the right type:

> py_version
[1] ‘3.10’
> class(py_version)
[1] "package_version" "numeric_version"
> typeof(py_version)
[1] "list"

The function py_discover_config() should always return a vector of length 1 and be a character.

Thx!
