No, I (and Kurt probably, too) had overlooked the extra flags
setting you'd used 

Thank you and Deepayan for checking more there.

I now agree this is something we (R Core) should address one way
or the other.

No packages are being loaded, or even installed.
Did you try running the example on R-devel built with flags I have
provided in this email?
I checked now and it is required to use --enable-strict-barrier to
reproduce the issue.

Looking inside Jan's Dockerfile, it turns out that he is configuring R with

./configure --with-recommended-packages --enable-strict-barrier
--disable-long-double

and with that I can reproduce:

> unique(list(new.env()))
Error in unique.default(list(new.env())) :
 LENGTH or similar applied to environment object

--enable-strict-barrier is enough to reproduce the error.

Ditto here;  also your (Jan) 2nd example works fine.

So, you must have loaded some (untidy) packages / code which redefine
standard base R behavior ?

Re: [Rd] R-devel internal errors during check produce?

2020-06-29 Thread Jan Gorecki
Thank you both,
You are absolutely correct that example should be minimal, so here it is.

l = list(a=new.env(), b=new.env())
unique(l)

Just for completeness, env_list during check that raises error

env_list <- list(baseenv(),
  as.environment("package:graphics"),
  as.environment("package:stats"),
  as.environment("package:utils"),
  as.environment("package:methods")
)
unique(env_list)

Best regards,
Jan

Indeed, if it is a bug in R (as opposed to being an assumption
that 'data.table' makes about undocumented R internals), it
should be reproducible with a very small dummy package instead
of data.table. ... or actually reproducible with relatively
simple R code calling unique() not envolving any non base package.

I cannot reproduce this locally (and have no clues about docker).
Perhaps you can try to debug this on your end?  And see what env_list is
when the error occurs?

So the unique.default is from the R tools package during checks.
I don't see those issues on CRAN checks.
Exact environment where I am reproducing this issue is a fresh ubuntu,
no R packages pre-installed
