Dear Bioconductor Team ,
since yesterday, I've been getting the following issue while running BiocCheck():
```

```
I'm experiencing this not only with my Bioc package which is currently under development but also with other Bioconductor packages. I've tested it on multiple systems. Is everything okay with BiocCheck() or am I doing something wrong?
Kind regards,
Sophie
