Dear R team, Are suggested dependencies mandatory in context of `R CMD check` when using env var `_R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=FALSE`? Suggested dependencies are nice because are optional. But that feature often isn't valid when trying to run `R CMD check` on them. I would like to use `export _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=FALSE`, which according to the comment in `tools/R/check.R`: > The suggested packages are required...

...h out of R CMD check (and thus the assurances granted by knowing a package passes it). AFAIK (without going off and checking right now) you /could/ force R CMD check to do this now with a combination of options, though, if that's really what you want (which would allow your package to pass when _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ is set to false). ~G On Mon, Apr 4, 2016 at 7:25 AM, Hadley Wickham <h.wickham at gmail.com> wrote: > On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 5:33 AM, Jan G?recki <J.Gorecki at wit.edu.pl> wrote: > > Dear R team, > > > > Are suggested dependencies mandatory in context of `R CMD c...

...atch for that together if there is a) interest, and b) a patch is preferable to someone on R-core simply doing that migration themselves. I do also agree that given that _R_CHECK_DEPENDS_ONLY_ and _R_CHECK_SUGGESTS_ONLY_ are mentioned in the section you link, it would perhaps make sense to mention _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ as well. I can put that in the patch as well, if there is agreement from R-core that one or both of these changes make sense.

Can someone please add documentation for that environment variable to Writing R Extensions? An appropriate place would be section https://cloud.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Suggested-packages which already discusses _R_CHECK_DEPENDS_ONLY_=true [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

...indows 7 machine, and I want to tell R check not to worry about the "suggested" packages. I realize this can be done using the ~/.R/check.Renviron file, but what directory corresponds to "~"? Is that supposed to be the user directory? Or is it some other directory?

How should the Suggests entry be written in this case? Have package that supports parallel processing available for multiple R versions. Original package DESCRIPTION Suggests entry only listed 'multicore' and life was good. Since R-2.14+ includes 'parallel' package, thought I could reference that on the Suggests entry too. But not so fast. As it doesn't exist for previous

r-help at r-project.org Dear friends, I want to make the following change of R setting on a windows 7 desktop. $R_check_force_suggests = "FALSE" Since I have no experience using Unix, I don't how to make the suggestions in "writing R extension" works for windows. I will appreciate if you would help me to figure out what is the equivalent of the following settings in

I'm working to automate the building of RPM packages for CRAN &c. In the process, I'm trying to get a sense of the correct dependencies. It's my sense that R CMD CHECK is the Right Way to check to see if a package is built properly. But according to Writing R Extensions, I could reasonably expect anything in Suggests or Imports to be used by CHECK. In RPM parlance, this turns

Hi all, I am building R 2.12.0 patched this morning from source on Snow Leopard (10.6.4). In fact, three times now, with separate clean source and build directories each time, just to be sure that the issue is predictable. I would be happy to have somebody tell me that I am missing something fundamental here also... After running make check-all, I get the following error for 'nlme': *
