[R-pkg-devel] submitting package update failed, since old version out of date (?)

Hi,

submitting an update of our package ordPens failed (update version is 1.0.0), reporting the following:
Version: 1.0.0
ok
Version: 0.3-1
Check: R code for possible problems, Result: NOTE
  genRidge: no visible global function definition for 'plogis'
  ordGene: no visible global function definition for 'anova'
  ordGene: no visible global function definition for 'lm'
  ordSelect: no visible binding for global variable 'sd'
  ordSmooth: no visible binding for global variable 'sd'
  plot.ordPen: no visible global function definition for 'grey'
  plot.ordPen: no visible global function definition for 'devAskNewPage'
  plot.ordPen: no visible global function definition for 'lines'
  predict.ordPen: no visible global function definition for 'plogis'
  Undefined global functions or variables:
    anova devAskNewPage grey lines lm plogis sd
  Consider adding
    importFrom("grDevices", "devAskNewPage", "grey")
    importFrom("graphics", "lines")
    importFrom("stats", "anova", "lm", "plogis", "sd")
  to your NAMESPACE file.
Version: 0.3-1
Check: package dependencies, Result: NOTE
  Package suggested but not available for checking: ‘IsoGene’

But these are exactly the new changes that we already took care of in the updated version 1.0.0
The previous version 0.3-1 is from 2015 and due to R updates, the old package won’t work any more. 
That is exactly the reason for update version 1.0.0, were everything is fixed now.

Also,
- there is a NOTE about change in maintainer, which is already stated in the cran-comments.md, and the previous maintainer sent an e-main to CRAN as well
- there is a NOTE saying 'Examples with CPU (user + system) or elapsed time > 10s‘
which is also stated in the cran-comments.md explaining that cross-validation examples are important for illustrating the package usage.
 

So is this a false positive? 

Best
Aisouda
