[R-pkg-devel] Reproducing CRAN pre-tests

[Aravind J.]

Hi,

I am trying to submit an updated version of my package PGRdup to CRAN. The
package has compiled code in C.

I do development in a windows environment.

The update was to fix issues in
https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_PGRdup.html.

I have successfully fixed PCRE2 compatability issues and the issue with "
‘strncpy’ specified bound depends on the length of the source argument".

For all instances of of strncpy I had changed the dependency on the length
of the source argument to that of destination argument.

On submission, now one issue remains with debian pre-test.

  /usr/include/x86_64-linux-gnu/bits/string_fortified.h:106:10:
warning: ‘__builtin_strncpy’ specified bound depends on the length of
the source argument [-Wstringop-overflow=]

https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/PGRdup_0.2.3.4_20190919_090630/Debian/00check.log

How to reproduce this error. I have tried rhub platforms
windows-x86_64-devel, ubuntu-gcc-release, fedora-clang-devel,
linux-x86_64-rocker-gcc-san, linux-x86_64-rocker-gcc-san and ubuntu-rchk
without any success.

How to reproduce the pre-test results in a windows environment? and how to
fix this specific error?

Regards,
