I'm trying to update a package and would like to crush a WARNING message for a clean build. 

I've been struggling with this question and haven't gotten any traction on the web either.

I've got a document file (Rd) that contains the following \usage statement:

\name{sample.data}
\alias{sample.data}

\title{CONIFERS forest growth model sample data}

\description{ A list object of type \code{sample.data} stores all of
the basic information about a \code{\link{data.frame}} object
representing a sample of plants.}

\usage{
x <- list( plots=data.frame(), plants=data.frame(), age=0, x0=0.0, n.years.projected=0 )
class(x)  <- "sample.data"
}

When I run R CMD check [pkg], I get the following WARNING:

* checking Rd \usage sections ... WARNING
Assignments in \usage in documentation object 'sample.data':
  x <- list(plots, plants, age = 0, x0 = 0, n.years.projected = 0)
  class(x) <- "sample.data"

Functions with \usage entries need to have the appropriate \alias
entries, and all their arguments documented.
The \usage entries must correspond to syntactically valid R code.
See the chapter 'Writing R documentation files' in manual 'Writing R
Extensions'.
* checking Rd contents ... OK

I'm not sure if there's a problem with the \alias section or the \usage section or both sections (I'm assuming this is the case).

I've read the Chapter 2 of R-ext.pdf plenty and just can't seem to see where I'm blowing it.

Respectfully,
Jeff.
