[R-pkg-devel] ERROR from R CMD check that I have never seen before

[Richard M. Heiberger]

I am updating the HH package and have series of messages that I don't recognize.

I have two questions about it.
1. What is it checking?  There are no words in the message that
indicate which of my
functions is being looked at.

I am getting 6 of these.  They are all identically worded.  sometimes they are
NOTE ERROR WARNING

Thanks
Rich

2. How can I run R CMD check, or its components, in a way that will stop and
let me investigate from the point?  I am looking for the equivalent of
the R option
