Check results vary. With win-builder both R-release (R 4.4.1) and R-devel I get
* checking S3 generic/method consistency ... NOTE
Apparent methods for exported generics not registered:
esa.plot
See section 'Registering S3 methods' in the 'Writing R Extensions'
manual.
But there's no such Note on mac-builder R 4.4.0 or my own R CMD check --as-cran
on Windows with R 4.3.2, nor apparently on R 4.4.1 linux.
Thanks for checking, but I think I do have a problem.

Subject: Re: [R-pkg-devel] Deprecating apparent S3 method, changing name
Hmm, the following doesn't seem to trigger warnings or notes in `R CMD
check --as-cran` (R 4.4.1; linux)
esa <- function(x) {
UseMethod("esa")
}
esa.plot <- function(y) {
.Deprecated("esaPlot")
esaPlot(y)
}
esaPlot <- function(y) {
message("esaPlot")
}
esa.numeric <- function(x) {
message("esa.numeric")
}
With NAMESPACE:
S3method(esa, numeric)
export(esa)
export(esa.plot)
export(esaPlot)
Am I doing something different than you are?
