Furthermore, when I run the R CMD check -as-cran on my machine (Windows), the test about line endings pass with no problems. May you help me telling me how I can modify the line endings of the above files?

I don't know why you are getting inconsistent test results, but one way 
to fix these is to open each file in your text editor, and save it with 
LF line endings.

If you are using RStudio, this is an option that's a little hard to 
find:  go to Tools | Project Options...  | Code editing | Line ending 
conversion, and choose "Posix (LF)".  Open and save each file, and it 
should be converted to the format that CRAN wants.
