This is a new check:
You must not write into the user's filespace without explicit agreement by
the user (by specifying path/name).
Note that some users won't even have permissions to write into the
package's installation directory if that is set up site wide by an admin,
for example.
So please use tempdir() in the examples.

Hi Cathy,
I also had troubles with debian (Fedora only gave warnings) and no
problems with other systems. Mine was related to me writing a file (or
rather trying to write) in a working directory other than tempdir (can be
retrieved by tempdir()). I now write it to tempdir and then set the old
working directory again at the end of the example. Perhaps that is somehow
helpful for your case too?
I can highly recommend to test your tar.gz file with the check() function
of the rhub package. You can for example run check("pathtoyourpackage",
platform = "debian-gcc-devel") or
check_for_cran("pathtoyourpackage", platform = "debian-gcc-devel"), i.e.
test your package on debian without troubles.
Best,
Christine

Betreff: [R-pkg-devel] File name error
I am getting the following error from the auto-checks when trying to
submit a package to CRAN:
r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc
<https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_flavors.html#r-
devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc>

64-debian-gcc/CATkit-00check.html>
Error in pdf(file = fileName4, width = 8, height = 10) :

51-46CAToutput.pdf'
Since this works for ALL other flavors, I am assuming it may be some file
name restrictions unique to debian-gcc??? I can't think what else would
cause it to fail only in the OS.
debian doesn't like "--"?
