Why not submit a bug report at the devtools repository?

           Jim Ramsay got this after setwd to what seemed to be the appropriate
working directory and then running devtools::release(), as noted above.
As near as both of us can determine, we've followed essentially the same
protocol here as with other package submissions.


           In case you want the entire devtools::release() transcript, it
appears below running under Big Sur on a Mac.


           Suggestions?
           Thanks,
