I am currently trying to submit a package to CRAN, and I see no problems in running the test on my package on Linux ubuntu 18.04 and the latest compiled R. Is there a docker image of the CRAN...

Thanks. What is the recommended strategy in this case? Keep submitting and patching until it passes? ?On 30/01/2020, 22:48, "Dirk Eddelbuettel" <edd at debian.org> wrote: On 30 January 2020 at 21:40, Borini, Stefano wrote: | I...

Hello, I am currently facing a rather unusual situation. I am running the following command on two windows 10 machines: C:\\Program Files\\R\\R-3.6.3\\bin\\R.exe CMD INSTALL -l ".envs\\default\\lib" "C:\\Windows\\system32...

Then I argue that the model is wrong. Platforms change all the time, but package release and package testing are two separate operations. I also guess it hardly scales. If the number of packages were to increase, you can?t...

I think (but I am not sure) that I narrowed down the issue to a stochastic process that has no seed defined. Unfortunately it's not my package so I have to do mostly guesswork on this regard. What has...

Hello, Validated software needs to ensure consistency and reproducibility of its environment, potentially in years' time, when the audit comes. For this reason, we identify all SHA of the packages we download from CRAN to ensure that the package has...

Sure, but why rebuild the package that has already been built? Alternatively, would it be possible to have an index containing the sha of the packages, both of the current and of the archive? It doesn?t necessarily solve (someone...

If you want to guarantee that a CRAN package can be re-installed years from now, *you* should be archiving a copy of it. We do, in fact, but that's beside the point. The success of an opensource project...

Related to this, there's also been discussion (here or on R-devel), of having `R CMD build` produce identical tarballs when the input doesn't change, but the injection of `Packaged: <timestamp>; <user>` to the `DESCRIPTION` file prevents this...

It's hard to convey tone in an email, but to me your post read more like a demand than a report of an issue. I apologize for my misreading if that wasn't your intention. No problem. I just...

CRAN rebuilds binary packages because of (potential) changes in build-time dependencies. ABI changes, in the loose sense of the term. E.g. package A can call the shared library of another package B. If the ABI of B changes...
