[R-pkg-devel] [External] Re: Confusing error
Thank you [and Josiah Parry] for your help; I had already seen that PracTools uses `survey` but only suggests it, and I was unsure what to do on my end since I was getting in trouble whether I imported it or not. I will try doing what you suggest. Since the call to PracTools::deffCR is essential to this package, I will do the second suggestion.

It only suggests the survey package, so it is not necessarily available. What you could do is also suggest survey, then add a test for its presence before calling PracTools::deffCR. Or if that call is essential, then you should import survey, and add some innocuous direct reference to it to quiet the NOTE. Duncan Murdoch

Hello,
I am trying to submit an R package to CRAN. There are no notes, comments or errors when checking on my local machine, but I keep getting an error message when submitting. I am attaching the log file, but basically the error occurs when running the examples. In particular, it says
Error in loadNamespace(x) : there is no package called 'survey'
However, my package does not use the ?survey? package, and when I include this package to the Imports field in the DESCRIPTION file, it gives the following NOTE:
checking dependencies in R code ... NOTE
Namespace in Imports field not imported from: ?survey?
All declared Imports should be used.
How do I resolve this issue?
I'd remove the survey package on your system, and try running the example that fails. If you get the same error, you can track it down. Duncan Murdoch
