[R-pkg-devel] Proper way to cleanup after build third party components?

[Konstantin Sorokin]

Hello!

I've recently submitted my first package on CRAN and now need to make
some improvements
on feedback received from CRAN maintainers.

https://github.com/thekvs/zstdr
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/zstdr/index.html

My question are:

   1. In the process of building package I also need to build some
   third party components, now I use mktemp utility to create temporary
   subdirectory in /tmp/ directory where I build this third party part. I was
   told that according to CRAN packaging policy I should not leave any
   artifacts in /tmp/ after package build. My question is: Is it enough to
   delete this temporary directory in the "cleanup" script?
   2. Is it possible to install cmake on OSX and Solaris build hosts?
