CRAN is notorious for being picky, performing hundreds of quality checks before
allowing a package to be shared there. Has it occurred to you that "artyfarty",
not having been through CRAN, might simply be broken?
Yes the directories you ask about are only present temporarily while the
package is checked and moved into your package library, so they are "temporary"
even though they are not in your TMP or TEMP directories. The missing file is
almost certainly the R file, not the directory.
