I have a function that outputs / compiles some latex. To do this I use 
Sys.which('pdflatex') and if nothing is found, prompt the user whether to 
install tinytex package. So, normally I understand the use of 'Suggests' in the 
package description to be for when there are only certain functions / tests 
that require the package. In this case, the package requirement is also 
conditional on other software (ie a tex distribution) not being found, 
otherwise it is unnecessary. There are no tests or examples that depend on the 
package. Should tinytex be in the 'Suggests' list?


Cheers,

Charles
