[R-pkg-devel] rhub, docker and Bioconductor

[Christian Martin Hennig]

Hi there,

I'm trying to track down some errors and issues of my fpc package. As I can't reproduce any of these on my machine, I'm using rhub and docker.

I'm getting Bioconductor related issues with both

  local_check_linux("fpc_2.2-3.tar.gz", image = "rhub/debian-clang-devel")

and

rhub::check("fpc_2.2-3.tar.gz", platform = "debian-clang-devel")

namely locally:

>
source('https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R')
Error: With R version 3.5 or greater, install Bioconductor packages using BiocManager; see https://bioconductor.org/install
Execution halted
Error in run(bash, c(file.path(wd, "rhub-linux.sh"), args), echo = TRUE,  :
  System command error

...and on rhub:

91<https://builder.r-hub.io/status/fpc_2.2-3.tar.gz-2492f95fc1c94fcbbff4d6f47cb423f8#L91>#> Error: package or namespace load failed for 'BiocManager':

(To be totally honest, I'm not even sure whether the latter rhub issue doesn't refer to the local docker thing as well, because this was linked from an R-hub builder PREPERROR email, it also mentions docker, and all the time indications don't make it unambiguously clear to what build they refer.)

Not sure what to do about this. Are there any other options apart from rhub/docker to get wiser about my errors and issues (error on debian-clang in a routine that shows nothing suspicious on my machine, additional issues  ATLAS<https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/Rblas/ATLAS/fpc.out> MKL<https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/Rblas/MKL/fpc.out> noLD<https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/noLD/fpc.out> OpenBLAS)?<https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/Rblas/OpenBLAS/fpc.out>

Yesterday I was able to check a prabclus noLD error on rhub, but no luck yet with fpc.

Thanks a lot,

Christian
