Hi, Today I have submitted a new version of the RALSA package. Soon after I received an automatic email letting me know that the package did not pass some of the pre-tests:
It would be helpful to let us know where to see the troublesome NEWS.md file. Maybe a small change in formatting is causing these false positives. Duncan Murdoch
package RALSA_1.3.0.tar.gz does not pass the incoming checks automatically, please see the following pre-tests: Windows:<https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/RALSA_1.3.0_20220707_190307/Windows/00check.log> Status: 2 NOTEs Debian:<https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/RALSA_1.3.0_20220707_190307/Debian/00check.log> Status: 1 NOTE Last released version's CRAN status: OK: 9, NOTE: 4 See:<https://CRAN.R-project.org/web/checks/check_results_RALSA.html>
To summarize: 1. Windows checks found possibly invalid DOIs. This is to be ignored, as stated here: https://www.mail-archive.com/r-package-devel at r-project.org/msg07116.html 2. Windows, Debian (gcc) and Fedora (clang and gcc) drop the following note: checking package subdirectories ... NOTE Problems with news in 'NEWS.md': No news entries found. This is rather strange because I have added one of the largest news updates I ever made for this package in the NEWS.md file with this submission. Further, this note appears only in these four of the 13 platforms where the package is checked. Apparently, this is beyond my control and I can do nothing to fix it on my end. I have already replied to the email to notify the CRAN-submissions at R-project.org this is a false-positive as advised in the email itself, but I thought the mailing list should also be aware of this issue. Best, Plamen
