Hi Toby, As Gabor pointed out the place where the various levers R CMD check supports is in the R-internals manual, but there is a link directly to that section in https://cloud.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Checking-packages It could perhaps be more prominent, perhaps by moving the paragraph that appears in to before the detailed list of exact tests that are performed?

Hi R-core, I was wondering if somebody could please add jsslogo.jpg to the R sources? (as I reported yesterday in this bug) https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17687 R already includes jss.cls which is the document class file for Journal of Statistical Software. Actually, for the jss.cls file to be useful, it also requires jsslogo.jpg in order to compile JSS articles without

Dear R-devel, I am running mclapply with many iterations over a function that modifies nothing and makes no copies of anything. It is taking up a lot of memory, so it seems to me like this is a bug. Should I post this to bugs.r-project.org? A minimal reproducible example can be obtained by first starting a memory monitoring program such as htop, and then executing the following code while

Hi all, I'm getting the following error from substring: > substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) Error in substr("<I>Jens Oehlschl\xe4gel-Akiyoshi", 1, 100) : invalid multibyte string at '<e4>gel-A<6b>iyoshi' Is that normal / intended? I've tried setting the Encoding/locale to Latin-1/UTF-8 but that does not help. nchar

Hi all, (and especially hi to Tomas Kalibera who accepted my patch sent yesterday) I believe that I have found another bug, this time in the substring function. The use case that I am concerned with is when there is a single (character scalar) text/subject, and many substrings to extract. For example substring("AAAA", 1:4, 1:4) or more generally, N=1000

Dear R-devel, I did a systematic comparison of write.csv with similar functions, and observed two asymptotic inefficiencies that could be improved. 1. write.csv is quadratic time (N^2) in the number of columns N. Can write.csv be improved to use a linear time algorithm, so it can handle CSV files with larger numbers of columns? For more details including figures and session info, please see

Thanks for the quick response Ivan. readLines with encoding='latin1' works for me (on Ubuntu). However I was more concerned with the inconsistency in results between substr and regexpr. I was expecting that if one of them errors because of an unknown encoding then the other should as well. Even better, if regexpr works, why shouldn't substr work as well? Incidentally the analogous

I am the author of R package animint which uses testthat for unit tests. This means that there is a single test file (animint/tests/testthat.R) and during R CMD check we will see the following output * checking tests ... Running ?testthat.R? I run these tests on Travis, which has a policy that if no output is received after 10 minutes, it will kill the check. Because animint's testthat

I am getting the following on CRAN windows and winbuilder https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-devel-windows-ix86+x86_64/penaltyLearning-00check.html Apparently there is an error in re-building vignettes, but I do not have any idea what it is, because all that is listed is three dots (...). Is this a bug in R CMD check? If not, the only solution I can think of is removing the vignette

thanks for the tip Jan. However it would be nice if I didn't have to handle this myself for all of my packages. (and teach my students how to do that) BTW I tried to disable staged installation, and the issue still happens: th798 at cmp2986 MINGW64 ~/projects/max-generalized-auc (master) $ R_INSTALL_STAGED=FALSE R --vanilla -e

If anybody else has this issue, please add a comment on https://bugs.r-project.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17478 so we are more likely to get R-core to address this.

Hi the reference to R Internals https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-ints.html#Tools in ?check (PkgUtils.Rd in utils package) is stale. Here is my proposed patch (use named reference rather than numeric reference to avoid any similar broken links in the future).

Hi all, I am having an issue related to installing packages on windows with R-3.6.0. When installing a package that is in use, I expected R to stop with an error. However I am getting a warning that the DLL copy was not successful, but the overall package installation IS successful. This is quite dangerous because the old DLL and the new R code could be incompatible. I am definitely not the

Hi all, Several people have noticed that gregexpr is very slow for large subject strings when perl=TRUE is specified. - https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31216299/r-faster-gregexpr-for-very-large-strings - http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/strsplit-perl-TRUE-gregexpr-perl-TRUE-very-slow-for-long-strings-td4727902.html - https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2008-October/178451.html I figured out

thanks for your input Herv?. Glad to hear I'm not the only one still having this issue. In my opinion install.packages should stop with an error (instead of a warning) if this happens. However even if you want to keep the warning, at least make it so that users can set options(warn=2) to get an error if they want one. I tried setting options(warn=2) but for some reason I still get a warning.

Hello, I've been using R for about 3 years now and I'm pretty sure this is a bug. I'm using R 2.2.0. The way R is set up to get packages from CRAN using install.packages is really convenient --- if you are installing to your system's main package directory. However, I observe the following problem: I want package X but it requires package Y. Further, I have neither package

Hi all, Today I had an R CMD build that failed while building a vignette because the vignette needs tidyr (>= 1.0, declared in DESCRIPTION Suggests) but my system had a previous version installed. It did not take me too long to figure out the issue (solved by upgrading tidyr) but it would have been even faster / easier if R CMD build failed early, with an error message that says something
