Dear Duncan,
Thank you and the others who responded to my message.

R tries to get the time from
http://worldtimeapi.org/api/timezone/UTC or
http://worldclockapi.com/api/json/utc/now
The first one doesn't accept UTC as a timezone; it appears to want
etc/UTC instead. The second one is offline.

If both of those fail, you'll get the message you saw.

Dear r-package-devel list members,
I got the following note when checking two different packages today
--as-cran, both under R 4.0.2 and under R-devel, on my Windows 10 and
macOS Catalina systems, and on several platforms on rhub:
* checking for future file timestamps ... NOTE
unable to verify current time
I'm writing to inquire about the note because no one else has mentioned
this problem recently, in case it's produced by something that I'm
doing. There is a discussion of a similar problem from 2019 at
<https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2019q1/003577.html>.
Both packages that I was checking are close to CRAN releases and so I'd
like to know whether I can disregard the note.
Any help would be appreciated.
John
