Hi, I maintain a bunch of packages on CRAN. When updating packages, I often find two sort of NOTES on some of the platforms that CRAN checks that don't show up on my stupid Windows (I know that's redundant; you don't have to tell me) machine at home. The two most common issues are * spelling (especially in the DESCRIPTION file), and * links in the documentation with missing package anchors. How do I enable these checks so that when I run "R CMD check --as-cran" it actually does behave like those CRAN machines do, so I can find and fix the issues before submitting the package? Thanks, ?

In most cases, installing a recent version of R-devel will do (here, the check with it will show the notes about missing package anchors). Georgi Boshnakov

Hi,
I maintain a bunch of packages on CRAN. When updating packages, I often
find two sort of NOTES on some of the platforms that CRAN checks that
don't show up on my stupid Windows (I know that's redundant; you don't
have to tell me) machine at home. The two most common issues are
* spelling (especially in the DESCRIPTION file), and
* links in the documentation with missing package anchors.
How do I enable these checks so that when I run "R CMD check --as-cran"
it actually does behave like those CRAN machines do, so I can find and
fix the issues before submitting the package?
Thanks,

And if all else fails submit to Winbuilder using the R-devel branch. Michael

Slight thread hijacking: does there exist/has someone compiled a list of the environment variables that determine R CMD check's behaviour?

https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/R-ints.html#Tools But the _R_CHECK_CRAN_INCOMING_USE_ASPELL_ variable that Kevin would need to set to "TRUE" in order to enable the spell checks is not documented there.
Best regards, Ivan
Thank you!
