[R-pkg-devel] Attempted resurrection of archived package multipanelfigure - CRAN auto checking failure

[Johannes Graumann]

Hello,

As `assertive.properties`, `assertive.strings` and `assertive.types`
have recently been archived so were my packages depending on them,
including `multipanelfigure`.

I have prepared a maintenance release that tackles the problem, but
gets stuck in the automated CRAN upload checks with (among fixable
things I understand)


```
