>From the top of my head:
i) Download the prebuild GSL library CRAN uses for Windows and install
it on test machine
ii) Set the LIB_GSL environment variable that RcppGSL's src/Makevars.win
et al expect and depend upon
iii) Use the same mechanism in your package
That should be doable, with some work and elbow grease. Now, RcppGSL also
shows nine reverse-depends. The sources for all these packages are visible
via GitHub (search using the 'user:cran' constraint to limit it to the CRAN
mirror under GitHub user 'cran'). Did you check whether one of these nine
uses appveyor? (The RcppZiggurat package is mine and it doesn't as I usually
cannot be bothered the fight the windmills presented by non-Linux CI.)
