[R-pkg-devel] Solaris and ggplot2

[Dev Chakraborty]

My package RJafroc, which is currently on CRAN, passes all operating
systems except solaris-x86-patched, and as a result has been flagged for
removal. Using R-hub builder, I am unable to reproduce the log file because
a required package, ggplot2, does not exist for Solaris. I found the
following conversation on GitHub at the following URL:
https://github.com/tidyverse/ggplot2/issues/2273 (the conversation is
reproduced below).

Could use any advice. Thanks.

Dev

Hey there, it seems that ggplot2 on CRAN has an ERROR on solaris
https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-patched-so
laris-x86/ggplot2-00check.html because of a test about date scales that
does not pass. Do you have any plan to fix?

This is an issue for me because I have a package that imports ggplot2, and
I would like to use rhub to check it on solaris before submitting it to
CRAN. *However rhub can not perform the check because the ggplot2 package
is not available on solaris*. Here is the related issue at rhub
r-hub/rhub#83

*Probably not, since solaris is going away.*
