[R-pkg-devel] License of pre-built vignettes

[Helmut Schütz]

Dear all, since we have many examples in our vignettes (rendering takes 
about 7 minutes) we provide them in /inst/doc Another reason is to have 
HTML5 instead of XHTML1.0 produced by pandoc (which contains deprecated 
attributes). To prevent building we have BuildVignettes: no in the 
DESCRIPTION Building the source, and installation from the local zip 
works as intended (vignettes are listed by 
browseVignettes(package="ourpackage"), linked in the main man-page, and 
all internal links are fine. However, CHECK throws a WARNING FOSS 
licence with BuildVignettes: false If I understand that correctly, it 
means that license(s) could not retrieved. In the DESCRIPTION we have 
License: GPL (>=2) Furthermore, all vignettes have a license section We 
tried adding License_is_FOSS: yes and License_restricts_use: no to the 
DESCRIPTION without success. Any ideas? Helmut
