Hello,

This question has not stirred much discussion ... If this is the wrong
place to ask,  I was wondering if some one point me to where I should ask,
or who to approach?  If I understand this issue correctly, it does not
affect only my package, but also the maintainers of 50+ other packages that
depend on rJava when they will try to update the package.

So far I tried putting the explanation to the comment field when
submitting the update, and I also tried emailing
CRAN-submissions at r-project.org, but that was also without response so far.

This is probably a temporary Java installation problem on a CRAN Windows
machine, CRAN-submissions at r-project.org is the right place to report
this, please be patient.

Thanks
Tomas


Thanks for any pointers,

Tomas

doesn't build on all flavours

Hi,

I maintain a package in CRAN, for which I am struggling to push the
latest updates.

The problem is as follows:
My package passes tests without error or notice on all flavors but one,
where the install fails due to an installation error of a dependency
package (package rJava on r-devel-windows-ix86+x86_64). This installation
error was already there in the past submissions of my package to CRAN, and
was not previously considered as a blocker to the package (or its updates)
being accepted (Current CRAN status: ERROR: 1, OK: 10)

Now, the package updates are automatically rejected:

xxxx

package qCBA_0.4.tar.gz does not pass the incoming checks automatically,
please see the following pre-tests:
Windows: <
https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/qCBA_0.4_20191108_100822/Windows/00check.log

Status: 1 ERROR
Debian: <
https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/qCBA_0.4_20191108_100822/Debian/00check.log

Status: OK

xxxx

I cannot fix the problem with the dependency (rJava), and I also cannot
remove rJava from my package.

More details:
Installation of  rJava package fails on 32-bit Windows, as can be seen
here:

https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/qCBA_0.4_20191106_094406/Windows/00install.out
("keine zul?ssige Win32-Anwendung" error)
This problem seems to apply generally to the rJava package, not just to
its use in my package:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_rJava.html.

I've also described this in the "Optional comment" field.

Any help is appreciated,

Tomas
