[Bioc-devel] Submitted package under review: linux/Mac builds fine, warning generated in windows

Hi all,

I have a package under review, ExpHunterSuite. I understand that I must get
the package running with no warnings or errors during the bioconductor
builds before I can go to the next stage of the submission process.

I have achieved this for the linux and Mac builds -
http://bioconductor.org/spb_reports/ExpHunterSuite_buildreport_20210201084100.html

However I have the following warning with the Windows check:

* checking whether package 'ExpHunterSuite' can be installed ... WARNING
Found the following significant warnings:
  Rd warning: cannot open file
'C:/Users/pkgbuild/packagebuilder/workers/jobs/1835/ExpHunterSuite_20210201081747/ExpHunterSuite.buildbin-libdir/00LOCK-ExpHunterSuite/00new/ExpHunterSuite/help/%:::%.html':
Invalid argument
See
'C:/Users/pkgbuild/packagebuilder/workers/jobs/1835/ExpHunterSuite_20210201081747/ExpHunterSuite.Rcheck/00install.out'
for details.

Doing a bit of digging, it appears this may be related to a known issue
with the windows server, as described on the bioc-devel mailing list:
https://marc.info/?l=bioc-devel&m=160975009013765&w=4

Which basically states there isn't much that can be done for now and not to
worry...

I am therefore not sure how to proceed - the warning appears to be due to
problems outside of my control and does not indicate a major issue with the
package, however if I don't solve it, the package will not go to the next
step.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Kindest regards,

JIm
