Hi all,
I'm trying to upload a new version of my "huxtable" package. It is
currently failing reverse dependency checks for two packages (homnormal and
RSStest). The relevant failures are below.
I got this failure one time, and fixed the problem, which relates to
mistakenly relying on the Suggested: knitr package (see here for the
commit: https://github.com/hughjonesd/huxtable/commit/5a3edc). After the
commit, reverse dependency checks for homnormal and RSStest pass on my
machine, when testing either with revdepcheck::revdep_check or
tools::check_packages_in_dir, and even when knitr is not installed. But,
after I uploaded the new package to CRAN, the same failure recurred.
My new release candidate had the same version number as the previous one
(which had failed the revdep check, and therefore not been published on
CRAN). Is it possible that CRAN just tested the old version again?
If not, then can anyone suggest the best way to debug a revdep check on as
close a setup to the CRAN machines as possible?
Cheers,
David
