[R-pkg-devel] Help Debugging Debian Error

[Paul Hibbing]

Ah, I hadn't considered that the startup message could be the problem
- I thought the point of startup messages was to be distinct from
errors and warnings, so I wouldn't have expected that to trip up R CMD
Check. I assumed the failure was occurring somewhere inside the actual
code for my unit tests... I will see if removing the startup message
fixes things.
