I have at various times tried the built-in (tools package) solution;
fairly complex hand-rolled stuff I did myself; and revdepcheck. I found
that revdepcheck handled installation of needed dependencies, including
caching packages where necessary, more easily. It felt like the 'tools'
Not sure why nobody dicusses the R internal check functionality, also
for reverse dependencies, from the tools package?
That is what CRAN uses for the reverse dependency checks.
Best,

Another workaround is to use
tlogl <- readLines(attr(cpkg.chk, "path"))
Possibly this may suggest a way to improve functionality.

I got several responses to my query. Henrik's does suggest "why", but I
am rather unhappy that R has this weakness. (See below for a sort of
workaround for Linux users.)
In particular, note that the check_built() function DOES return an object,
but it does NOT print().
In fact, putting alldep <-
R CMD check, which is used internally runs checks in standalone
background R processes. Output from these is not capturable/sinkable
by the master R process. The gist of what's happening is:

Hi,
In trying to test that an upgrade to my optimx package does not break other
packages, I wanted to loop over a list of all such packages in alldep, with
nall the length of this list.
