[R-pkg-devel] Cannot reproduce errors of archived CRAN package

[Will L]

All,


I was just informed that the {targets} package was archived.

Version 0.4-1 is still failing on macOS so it and tarchetypes have been

The CRAN check errors (all unique to {targets} version 0.4.1) are at
https://cran-archive.r-project.org/web/checks/2021/2021-04-25_check_results_targets.html,
and I have been unable to reproduce them. I tried a fresh installation of R
4.0.2 and packages on my own Intel Mac, as well as GitHub Actions and both
Mac builds at https://builder.r-hub.io/. All those checks pass.

The error is somehow related to a very simple internal R6 class:
https://github.com/ropensci/targets/blob/4deba948b8d6ecf82511a5a58b1eb9a0addcf2bd/R/class_config.R.
The elusive failing tests are ostensibly in
https://github.com/ropensci/targets/blob/4deba948b8d6ecf82511a5a58b1eb9a0addcf2bd/tests/testthat/test-class_config.R,
but they always pass for me.
