[R-pkg-devel] Best way forward on a CRAN archived package

[Diego Hernangómez Herrero]

Hi:

I have some doubts on how to proceed in this case. I am the developer of
tidyterra, and I received an email from CRAN on 23Sep2022 about an issue on
the package, setting a deadline on 07Oct2022 to correct it.

I sent a patch that was accepted on CRAN on 29Sep2022, that fixed the issue
(or at least I am pretty sure I solved it). I received no further feedback
by CRAN, so I assumed the package was safe. However it was finally archived
on 07Oct2022.

I have already sent an email to CRAN in order to check if they think the
issues still persist (or maybe they missed the patch submission?), but I am
in a rush since there are other packages that depend on tidyterra and they
may be in risk of being archived on CRAN as well.

So my question is: What is the best way forward at this point? Should I
wait to get some feedback from CRAN or is it best to resubmit the package
(I already have a new patch prepared)? I acknowledge that  "The time of the
volunteers is CRAN’s most precious resource" so my goal is to reduce their
burden as much as possible.

Kind regards

Have a nice day!
