[R-pkg-devel] Help with checking package.

[Roy Mendelssohn - NOAA Federal]

I don't know if there is an option to R CMD check tha will catch this, but you should always test your packages on some combination of win builder and RHub.  That would have flagged the error, and gives you the best chance of catching all possible errors across various OSs before you submit to CRAN.

HTH,

I suspect it might have to do with the dependencies not installed on CRAN but the dependencies are declared in my Description file in the import section. I don’t know how to go forward.
