[R-pkg-devel] Errors in make check in Windows 10 with OpenBLAS

[Tomas Kalibera]

Hi Erin,

this comes from examples in ?str. Could you please try to find a minimal 
example to reproduce on your system based on that? I would look for 
"line needs" in ?str and experiment with reducing the example there 
while still getting the error. Once it is minimal, could you please try 
also on the official build of R on your machine?

Also it would be nice to have a session info. If it works in the 
official build but not your custom build, then one would have to look 
also into how the custom build is done.

Thanks
Tomas
