Re: [R-pkg-devel] proper way to cite an invalid URL
Ivan, thank you! That seems to be correct. I'll replace the link. For future reference in answer to the original question, it seems that Duncan's suggestion works best, assuming that the 'curl' problem was unrelated.

It seems to apply to all URLs and DOIs, though i did not get it on any previous check: Checking URLs failed with message: there is no package called 'curl' Checking DOIs failed with message: there is no package called 'curl' Looks like Win-Builder for R-devel is having transient problems: https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-devel-windows-x86_64/curl-00install.html ("ERROR: cannot remove earlier installation, is it in use?", and then it fails to overwrite libs\x64\curl.dll with "Permission denied".) __ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
Re: [R-pkg-devel] [My solution] How and where do I document sysdata.rda
I promised I would update on this. I now realise that what I was tryig to do was logically impossible. I was trying to hide the data set (achieved) but also hide the documentation. That makes no sense as anyone wanting to change the dataset would not know where to find the documentation. The probabiliy anyone would want to edit it is almost indsitinguishable from zero but it is as Charles suggests a good principle. So the answer is to document it in the usual way and use the keyword internal. The main difference from a standard Rd file for data is the usage statement. As georgi pointed out this just consists of the dataset name not data(datasetname). Thanks for all your help on this and sorry it took so long to respond.

At the moment I create it and save the resulting file and then manually copy it to sysdata.rda. This works but the package now contains no documentation about the look-up table. Most of the information which I turned up online involves doing it all indirectly using various packages. I do not want to do that, I am quite happy editing files by hand and moving them to where I want them by hand. So what I need is to know where I should put the documentation and what format it should be assuming it is not an Rd file. Of course what I want may be impossible and I just need to document it in the script which creates it but that seems messy.
