[Bioc-devel] normr 0.99.5 Test Coverage "unknown"

Without knowing the details it seems self-evident to me that the build
system can do the coverage report if the package doesn't build.

Best,

Dear Bioconductor Developers,

I recently contributed a package `normR` for calling enrichment and
differences in ChIP-seq data (http://bioconductor.org/packages/normr/).
To test the functionality of the package, I used `testthat`. All the tests
run well when using `testthat::test()`, `R CMD build` or `R CMD check`.
However, the `normr` package landing package (
http://bioconductor.org/packages/normr/) reports "Test coverage:
unknown".

I installed `covr` on my local machine and ran
`covr::package_coverage()`. It seems to work fine:

normr Coverage: 77.50%
R/NormRCountConfig.R: 50.00%
R/methods.R: 64.32%
src/em.cpp: 79.27%
R/NormRFit.R: 87.33%
src/normr_init.c: 100.00%

Is "Test Coverage: unknown" related to the Bioconductor build system not
being able to build my package on Linux? (I filed this in an earlier post
related to the unavailability of automake-1.14 for Rhtslib 1.5.3
installation)

Thank you very much,
Johannes Helmuth
