Hello:
Thank you again for your help.
I resubmitted the package (after it passed R CMD check) and it seems
there is still an ERROR on the windows builder as shown here:
https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/ggenealogy_1.0.3_20240221_121754/Debian/00check.log
Error: processing vignette 'ggenealogy.Rnw' failed with diagnostics:
chunk 58 (label = plotCBText)
Error in graphics::strwidth(pMPDF$label, "inches") :
conversion failure on 'Lubomír Kubáček' in 'mbcsToSbcs': for č (U+010D)
My latest vignette file can be found on the package github:
https://github.com/lindsayrutter/ggenealogy/blob/master/vignettes/ggenealogy.Rnw
The recommended cairo_pdf() syntax was used on lines 47-54:
<<results=hide,echo=FALSE>>=
my.Swd <- function(name, width, height, ...)
grDevices::cairo_pdf(
filename = paste(name, "pdf", sep = "."),
width = width, height = height
)
@
\SweaveOpts{grdevice=my.Swd,pdf=FALSE}
I am a bit unsure how to remove this persisting ERROR; is there
anything else you might recommend I look into?
Thank you again.
