[R-pkg-devel] Error in loadNamespace(x) : there is no package called 'formatR'

[Joseph Park]

Ah, yes... I see it now in Writing R Extensions.  Apologies for the 
oversight.

Regarding rmarkdown, is it redundant to include rmarkdown in 
VignetteBuilder if it is in Suggests, or is perhaps needed in the build 
config as a separate entity?

e.g:

Suggests: knitr, rmarkdown
VignetteBuilder: knitr, formatR

or

Suggests: knitr, rmarkdown
VignetteBuilder: knitr, rmarkdown, formatR

Thank you.
