[R-pkg-devel] Interpretation of rhub check failures

[Gábor Csárdi]

The lines
```
* checking examples with --run-donttest ...
Error: The operation was canceled.
```
and the 6 hours running time means that your build gets stuck while
running the examples, and then cancelled after 6 hours, that's the
time limit for a build.

This might or might not be specific for GitHub Acitions. If you want
to fix it, you'll need to figure out why the examples get stuck. Try
downloading the build artifacts, and see the output of the examples.
You might need to add more output to see what's going on.
