[R-pkg-devel] Package submission - Issue with pandoc in R CMD check

[Uwe Ligges]

This is currently under inspection by the CRAN team. Apparently 
img.shields.io have changed the cypher settings and pandoc fails with 
the new settings. We may have to disable *.md processing for some time.

Best,
Uwe Ligges

I didn't find any successful alternative to remove this warning, and of course for this package and others i maintain, i would like to keep the 2 badges, 1 for CRAN and 1 for Github so user can quickly check if there is a pending revision in Github.
