Hi,

Just a brief update: It seems that this problem still persists and indeed prevents updates of multiple packages in CRAN.
I, therefore, setup a GitHub issue for it here: https://github.com/s-u/rJava/issues/203#issuecomment-557927860

Tomas

Hi,

Yes, it is almost certainly the same issue as this one reported in October 2019. It seems that the policy must have changed sometime around September. As follows from "Reverse depends" of rJava, packages depending on rJava were successfully updated in mid-2019. The most recently updated package was apparently Crossover in May 2019.
