Touche :) And fully agree. Rcpp's unit tests covered Rcpp.package.skeleton() since about 2013. I have been keeping a local 'RD' build of R-devel in /usr/local/ for much longer to test both r-release and r-devel. But test coverage is never full or complete, and what bit me here during a live demo (now at [1]) was the equivalent functionality tickled with from RStudio with similar-but-not-identical code. And that part is certainly NOT contained in the unit tests. Can't win'em all. Still my bad for not checking NEWS, and bad luck this change did not get tickled by the many Rcpp tests runs here since the change was made.
