Uwe specifically mentioned Rcmd check which runs more tests and checks than are done during a simple install. Rcmd check really does catch a lot (there's even been some noise on this list that it catches *too much*) so if you're having trouble with a package, it is probably a reasonable place to start with the most rigorous set of package checks, and then go from there.
