Then you have to declare an encoding as the manual "Writing R
Extensions" suggests.
It occurred to me that package.skeleton could perhaps fathom this out by
looking for non-ASCII text in the files and using the current locale if it
finds any as the basis for declaring the encoding. But I believe people
should be made aware that if they write packages in French they are not
portable to Chinese or Russian or ..., and declaring an encoding is only
a palliative.
