[R-pkg-devel] How to fix: non-standard things in the check directory: 'NUL' ?

Rhub is not CRAN. Please include a link to your source package if you want help. If there is actually a bug in Rhub then this NUL error may not reflect the response you will get from CRAN if and when you submit.

Hi,

when trying to update my package on CRAN it is rejected, because it gets a note during checks on Debian:

Flavor: r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc
Check: for non-standard things in the check directory, Result: NOTE
Found the following files/directories:
'NUL'

There is no such file in my folder and therefore it can't be removed. With Windows everything is OK.
As far as I understood, this is a problem with Rhub? (https://github.com/clessn/locateip/issues/99)

Or what can I do, to fix this problem and get my package update submitted to CRAN?

Thanks,
