[R-pkg-devel] Documentation Cross-reference Unexpected Warning

[Dario Strbenac]

Good day,

If limma has already been installed, such as by

source("https://bioconductor.org/biocLite.R";)
biocLite("limma")

and the attached minimalist R package is built and checked, a warning is 
emitted about the cross-reference in the documentation file. The Writing R 
Extensions manual states that the [packageName] specifier would only be needed 
to "... refer to not-yet-installed packages ..." but in this case, limma is 
already installed and is in the library path. Is the warning a false positive? 
I am using the latest release of R.

* using R version 3.5.0 (2018-04-23)
* using platform: x86_64-pc-linux-gnu (64-bit)
* using session charset: UTF-8

You need

\link[limma]{limFit}

see Writing R Extensions.

Best,
