Jonathan Keane commented on ARROW-14544: ---------------------------------------- I might be mistaken, but I believe that {{_R_CHECK_DEPENDS_ONLY_=true}} makes it so that {{R CMD CHECK}} doesn't proactively error if a package listed in suggests is not available. The CI proposed is (kind of) the flipside of that (though will require using that flag, I believe): run the checks and _make sure_ that the suggested packages are definitely not installed/available. > [R] [CI] Check without any of the suggested packages > ---------------------------------------------------- > > Key: ARROW-14544 > URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-14544 > Project: Apache Arrow > Issue Type: Sub-task > Components: Continuous Integration, R > Reporter: Jonathan Keane > Priority: Major > > https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/noSuggests/README.txt -- This message was sent by Atlassian Jira (v8.20.1#820001)
