[R-pkg-devel] No protocol specified

Dear All,
I updated my package DataVisualizations and get a note, only for "r-release-osx-x86_64? and ?r-oldrel-osx-x86_64?

Checking dependencies in R code ... NOTE
No protocol specified

Can anyone translate this note to me in a way that I know what the issue is?

Best Regards
Michael

I might be mistaken, but "No protocol specified" is an error frequently
returned by an X server [*] when a connection to the display can be
established, but the client fails to authenticate and is denied access.

If my diagnosis is true, the error message indicates a setup problem on
the machine running R CMD check, not a package problem. At the
very least, this error message does not seem to appear anywhere in the R
source code.
