Dear all, I am using the CRAN_package_db function to determine whether the head versions of certain packages match those I need. The parallel package though, is missing from the database: > pdb <- tools:::CRAN_package_db() > pdb[pdb$Package=="parallel",]["Package"] [1] Package <0 rows> (or 0-length row....

Hi, In the DESCRIPTION file the ByteCompile and LazyLoading arguments appear to accept any value. >From the manual the field should be a "logical field". However, authors interpret this in a variety of ways: unique(tools::CRAN_package_db()$ByteCompile) # [1] NA "TRUE" "yes" "true" "Yes" "no" # unique(tools::CRAN_package_db()$LazyData) # [1] NA "true" "TRUE" "yes" "no" "false" # [7]...

I'm not trying to create a mirror of the CRAN. I also do not want to create a "subset" of CRAN packages. Sorry if my explanation was confusing. There are internal proprietary R packages that I would like to host on a private repo. I like the CRAN web pages that allow a user to browse the various packages from a browser without having to first install them. I want to duplicate the
