Hi,
I am trying to figure out how to fix warnings from two of the CRAN
machines on the submission of an update to a package. The only change to
my package was to add a "show" method to one of the S4 classes, which
was requested by a reviewer of the paper we submitted. The inability to
get this updated package into CRAN is the only thing holding up the
revision (and probable acceptance) of the manuscript.
The same "warnings"s were found in the previous version. The package is
called Mercator, and the CRAN check results from the last version
are here:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_Mercator.html
I get warnings from the two fedora machine instances (clang and gcc).
They both report
Check: whether package can be installed.
Result: WARN
Found the following significant warnings:
Warning: namespace ‘flexmix’ is not available and has been
replaced
>
> Check: data for non-ASCII characters
Result: WARN
Warning: namespace 'flexmix' is not available and has been
replaced
by .GlobalEnv when processing object '<unknown>'
The relationships in the DESCRIPTION files are:
1. Mercator depends on Thresher
2. Thresher imports moVMF
3. moMVF suggests flexmix
On my Windows machine, the package builds and installs with no errors or
warnings even if flexmix is not available (which I believe to be the
correct behavior). On R-Forge, both the Windows and LINUX versions build
and install with no errors or warnings. On R-Hub, tested on multiple
LINUX versions, the package builds and installs with no errors or
warnings.
And flexmix is still clearly available from CRAN:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/flexmix/index.html
In the latest attempt to get things to work, I added
Suggests: flexmix
into the DESCRIPTION file for Mercator, but this didn't help fix the
problem on CRAN.
Is there anything I can do to fix this problem (other than moan here on
this list and hope that CRAN can just install flexmix on those
machines)?
Thanks in advance for your help,
Kevin
