That's true.

Take a look at inst/doc/GGIR.html in the R CMD build output and search
for "%5B".

Unfortunately, there's no indication of the location. According to the
code of R CMD check (src/library/tools/R/QC.R in the R source code),
"%5B" is the whole link. Apparently, a square bracket got wrongly
interpreted as a link destination somewhere inside your document. Most
likely, the link on line 1158 has an unnecessary "[":
