a package depending on other packages does not pass checking on windows
I have been bitten by this myself. For that reason I have stopped using .Renviron. I believe the behavior is the same under Linux and Windows, so I think you might have a different setup on the two machines. You can fix it by explicitly setting R_LIBS as an environment variable or by putting the following in your .Rprofile .libPaths(SOMEDIR) But of these are accessed by R CMD ... Kasper

Dear developers, I am writing a package that depends on some other packages. The dependencies are stated in the `description' file under "Depends". They are installed in my private library, which is pointed to by setting R_LIBS in .Renviron, and are available if R is started normally. However, when I try to `R CMD check' my package, R complains about the dependencies being not available. I believe the reason is the option --vanilla set in $R_HOME/bin/check that prevents R from reading my .Renviron. This problem manifests itself with R 2.5.1 under Windows XP but not with the same version under Linux. (Yes, I know this is not the latest version, sorry about that :) ) How do I convince `R CMD check' to find the packages installed in the private library? Thanks in advance for your help!
