[Rd] R-devel now triggers nags on notes from vignettes
I recently submitted a minor update to a CRAN package that passed all CRAN checks ~ two weeks ago. Now, I get the response below from the CRAN-check-daemon R-devel reports * checking installed files from ?inst/doc? ... NOTE The following files are already in R: ?jss.cls? Please remove them from your package. The following files should probably not be installed: ?sfheaders.sty? The following directories should probably not be installed: ?fig? Consider the use of a .Rinstignore file: see ?Writing R Extensions?, or move the vignette sources from ?inst/doc? to ?vignettes?. Please fix. I added a .Rinstignore file to my project, (at top level, same as DESCRIPTION) containing inst/doc/fig/ inst/doc/jss.cls inst/doc/sfheaders.sty and re-submitted to CRAN, but the same nag notes return again. How to fix? And, why has the CRAN-check-daemon suddenly gotten so picky about NOTEs, particularly from vignettes? -- Michael Friendly Email: friendly AT yorku DOT ca Professor, Psychology Dept.

How to fix?As a start, you can get the same NOTEs by using the latest R devel version (I see them using 2012-01-20 r58143). /Henrik> > And, why has the CRAN-check-daemon suddenly gotten so picky about NOTEs, > particularly from vignettes? > > -- > Michael Friendly ? ?
