Hi Brian,
The checkbashisms script is invoked by the R checks automatically:
https://github.com/wch/r-source/blob/trunk/src/library/tools/R/check.R#L1216-L1267
Thus there shouldn't be any need for you to invoke it manually in your
configure script, even less so to worry about its presence. You can
still install it locally so the R checks can proceed without the warning
(or set _R_CHECK_BASHISMS_ to FALSE to skip that particular check, again
locally), but that shouldn't be a problem in CRAN, as it should be
installed there already.
Cheers,
Rodrigo

has been archived on CRAN because I was asked by CRAN to address issues
that I was unable to address before the deadline I was given. The issue I'm
struggling with is that when I use
```
R CMD check --as-cran vcfR_1.12.0.tar.gz
```
I get
```
* checking top-level files ... WARNING
A complete check needs the 'checkbashisms' script.
See section ‘Configure and cleanup’ in the ‘Writing R Extensions’
manual..
```
.
Dirk Eddelbeuttel has proposed a solution on SO. (Thank you again Dirk!)

I've implemented this change, but I am concerned that it won't be accepted
by CRAN. My concern is that this works on my local machines (Ubuntu and
MacOS), where I can install checkbashisms, but I can't control whether
checkbashisms is installed on CRAN machines or on user machines. This means
it will generate a WARNING on machines where checkbashisms is not
installed. Most of me feels that I need to address this somehow. But I do
not know how. Part of me is wondering if I should expect users to manage
this. Any help would be appreciated!
Thank you!
