You can fix this with the dev version of roxygen, you can get it from
https://github.com/r-lib/roxygen2
roxygen 7.1.1 with the fix will be on CRAN shortly, hopefully:
https://github.com/r-lib/roxygen2/issues/1126

automatically. As I understand it, an Rd file for the DT package that works and
meets the requirements of R-devel has been written manually
(https://github.com/rstudio/DT/blob/master/man/DT-imports.Rd). So this is what I
did for my polmineR package because I need to get it published asap (it has been
archived). It works and it passes tests. So far so good.

manner that evokes the same issues I have seen. I assume that further packages
will encounter this issue.
