[R-pkg-devel] GitHub Action failed re-building 'sos.Rnw'

[Spencer Graves]

Hi, Duncan:


	  I apologize for bothering you with such an obvious thing as using 
"CRAN() before library(sos)".


	  Now I have another problem:  "zq <- ???spline(2)" now retrieves the 
default 100 pages, not the 2 requested.


	  I think the processing of "???" has changed between 4.0.3 and 4.1.0. 
  I've done "debug(`?`)" in both 4.0.3 and 4.1.0:  The condition 
(!is.call(topicExpr1) || length(topicExpr1) != 2 || topicExpr1[[1]] !=
     "?" || !is.call(topicExpr1[[2]]) || length(topicExpr1[[2]]) !=
     2 || topicExpr1[[2]][[1]] != "?") evaluates initially to FALSE in 
4.0.3 but TRUE in 4.1.0.


	  You graciously contributed that code several years ago when I changed 
the name of the package from RSiteSearch to sos, and it has worked 
wonderfully ... until now.  If you don't have time to look at this, I 
will try to understand it and fix it myself.  However, I really don't 
understand the code, and you certainly did when you wrote it ;-)


	  Thanks,
	  Spencer Graves
