Hi, 

I am getting a strange error with 15.0 which I've not seen with previous
versions of R.

If sysdata.rda is included in R directory of the package I am getting:

R CMD build betfairly.roxygen/
* checking for file ?betfairly.roxygen/DESCRIPTION? ... OK
* preparing ?betfairly?:
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
* excluding invalid files
Subdirectory 'R' contains invalid file names:
  ?getMarketTradedVolume.Rd? ?sfdsfsd?
* checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
* checking for empty or unneeded directories
Removed empty directory ?betfairly/inst/doc?
* looking to see if a ?data/datalist? file should be added
Error in if (any(update)) { : missing value where TRUE/FALSE needed
Execution halted


If I remove the data everything is fine:

@~/works/betfair$ rm betfairly.roxygen/R/sysdata.rda 
@~/works/betfair$ R CMD build betfairly.roxygen/
* checking for file ?betfairly.roxygen/DESCRIPTION? ... OK
* preparing ?betfairly?:
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
* excluding invalid files
Subdirectory 'R' contains invalid file names:
  ?getMarketTradedVolume.Rd? ?sfdsfsd?
* checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
* checking for empty or unneeded directories
Removed empty directory ?betfairly/inst/doc?
* building ?betfairly_1.2.1.tar.gz?


If I manually adding sysdata.rda after build then checks run ok.

Vitalie.

I had the same issue.

Try:
R CMD BUILD --resave-data="best" package

This worked for me.  The issue seems to be in the reserving functions, 
but I'm not sure where.

Hmmm, and how have you added it before? Can you send us an example how 
to create an sysdata.rda that causes R to fail? If this is done vy 
roxygen, please ask the roxygen maintainers. If plainR, I am happy to 
look into it.

Best,
