Dear Duncan, Thank you for your suggestion. R CMD check is no longer failing to install the package. Best regards, ir.

Dear all, I'm puzzled by the error I get from R CMD check one of my packages. I'm running R CMD check with the --as-cran flag and it get the error both from running it from the command line as from within Rstudio. On the same machine R CMD check on my GRTS package (https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=1027) works fine. Any suggestions on how to fix this? I can send the source code in a private email if required.

It's hard to diagnose the cause of the error, but you can avoid the use of junctions by setting the environment variable R_WIN_NO_JUNCTIONS to some non-empty content, and that might avoid it.
