Hi Kevin, First, thanks for the configure.R package. I needed to check for the presence of two functions during compilation and it helped simplify the process for me.
I resubmitted to CRAN yesterday under the assumption that this report was being generated from a static analysis. I made the following changes to `tools/config.R`. * Removed all the `@export` lines. * Removed the default `path = "."` in `configure_directory()`. * Removed the `use_configure()` function. You can see the fill diff at <https://github.com/reedacartwright/ironseed/compare/8522d28...45a0f23#diff-6c174165097fa11900454663ab7b0a589bb0fc8f7e41b25d8b11833674ad4d91> If this passes, I'll let you know.
