If you can, mention them in the comments to the CRAN submission.

Check your R CMD build process. There seemed to have been an
avfintools.tar.gz file in the package directory at the time when you
were preparing the package tarball. If you prefer to build the package
in the current directory (i.e. by running R CMD build .) or otherwise
need that file there, use .Rbuildignore to prevent it from ending up
inside the tarball. For example, you can put \.tar\.gz$ on a line there
to skip all files with names ending with .tar.gz.
