My understanding is that R CMD INSTALL is not strictly necessary in
the official devel cycle. However, to be fair you should either include
that step in both cycles (devel and yours) or not. Then the numbers are
14 minutes vs 9 minutes (or 11 minutes vs 6 minutes).

No matter how you put it and how much benefits you get from this,
manual tarring is *wrong* and "after all these years" you should really
know this. Furthermore, here is what you claimed in a previous email:

   This is my development cycle:

   First, I run R CMD check until there are no more warnings/errors.
   Since years it was very convenient that R CMD check builds the
   pdf-files of the vignettes, too, since this allowed me to correct
   errors in the manual files and the vignette files at the same time!

   Afterwards I run R CMD INSTALL to install my package and do more
   tests until everything works.

   As you see I do not use R CMD build, since every run takes about
   5 minutes, it overwrites my zipped source code, and I would need
   to unzip it to get access to the vignette pdf-files.

You didn't mention the manual tarring.

Then later:

   Thank you, however since I use "R CMD INSTALL xps.tar.gz" my source
   code is not polluted.

So you are contradicting yourself.

   No, I simply do "tar czf xps_1.13.1.tar.gz xps".

Whaooo, finally! Note that, among other problems, this manual tarring
is very likely to pollute your source tree (this is one of the things
R CMD build will take care of).

You are free to do manual tarring for your own internal business if
you want, nobody cares, but you should keep this kind of dirty little
secrets for you. For your 10 corrections, you can do manual tarring
10 times, that's your problem, but that doesn't prevent you from doing
the right thing, i.e. R CMD build + R CMD check, as a *final* pass (e.g.
just before you commit your changes to svn). Now that means 71 minutes
vs 60 minutes, but you did the *right* thing.

Cheers,
H.
