Certainly there was more in the output that caused rejection as the
stuff you describe below seems to be fine.
I do not know which package this refers to, so cannot easily look.
Best,

I have submitted a new package to CRAN, and this package has been

* checking package dependencies ... NOTE
Package suggested but not available for checking: 'ionChannelData'
This suggested package consists of data sets, the size of which is too
large to satisfy CRAN's constraints. I put this package in a repository
on github, from which it can be accessed by users.
My DESCRIPTION file contains the line:
Additional_repositories: https://rolfturner.r-universe.dev
The given URL seems to work, in that users can indeed load the
ionChannelData package via the command
install.packages("ionChannelData",repos="https://rolfturner.r-universe.dev")
I was under the impression that this was all that I needed to do. The
CRAN checking process acknowledges the existence of the repository in
question:
Suggests or Enhances not in mainstream repositories:
ionChannelData
Availability using Additional_repositories specification:
ionChannelData yes https://rolfturner.r-universe.dev
>
So CRAN knows about this repository. Why can it not make use of it?
What can/should I do to resolve this problem?
I guess I could simply *not* Suggest ionChannelData. But what then, is
the point of the option of including an Additional_repositories field in
the DESCRIPTION file?
cheers,
Rolf Turner
