[R-pkg-devel] r-patched error

[David Hugh-Jones]

Hi all,

Latest release of my package has an error when checked on r-patched-linux
and r-devel-linux. Relevant output is shown below (from
https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_huxtable.html). It
suggests that there's no method for `align<-` and `bold` for huxtable
objects. In fact the package defines and exports such methods. Selected
lines from the NAMESPACE file:

S3method("align<-",huxtable)
S3method(bold,huxtable)
export("align<-")
export("align<-.huxtable")
export(bold)
export(bold.huxtable)

Checks are passing fine on other platforms. Is this just a weirdness to do
with the changes in R 3.5.0 on Linux? Or does it indicate a real problem?

Cheers,
David
