[R-pkg-devel] LaTeX issues on r-devel-windows-x86_64-gcc10-UCRT?

2021-09-21 Thread Stephan Struckmann
Dear all,

lately, an error and two warnings occurred for our package dataquieR on the 
platform r-devel-windows-x86_64-gcc10-UCRT 
(https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_dataquieR.html). 

Unfortunately, error messages/warnings are likely related to the test system’s 
configuration/setup:

  - Missing file /msys64/home/tomas/ucrt3/svn/ucrt3/r_packages/patches_idx.rds

  - "LaTeX errors“ without further specification, rather unspecific.

I have now re-built this environment as close as I could according to the 
platform description and given my infrastructure. In this setup, I had a 
missing font in the end in my test installation. 

After I had applied this: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/129523 (setup 
configuration for the font ts1-zi4r), the pdf could be created. The warning 
about missing patches_idx.rds, I could not reproduce, but this may be less 
relevant anyway.

The setup, I used (hopefully close to r-devel-windows-x86_64-gcc10-UCRT) was

  - Microsoft Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC, 10.0.17763 Build 17763
  - R 4.2.0 Pre Release UCRT3 downloaded today from r-project.org as the only R 
installation
  - Rtools 4.0.2.0.1 downloaded today from r-project.org as the only Rtools 
installation
  - For TeX, I installed MiKTeX 21.6 as the only TeX installation.
  - all binaries were put on the PATH environment variable

—— 

Now my question: Is this related to CRAN’s r-devel-windows-x86_64-gcc10-UCRT 
and can that be fixed there? Whom should I contact at CRAN?

Thank you in advance,

Stephan

Dear Tomas,

geat work, thank you!

Indeed, dataquieR now doesn’t show any errors any more. If I find the time, 
I’ll try MikTeX 21.8 later today, maybe, I can examine the issues a bit deeper 
then.

Have a great day,

Stephan

[R-pkg-devel] r-oldrel-windows-ix86+x86_64 -- bioconductor links?

2022-08-30 Thread Stephan Struckmann
Dear list members,

thank you for reading. For a few weeks, I have a WARNING on CRAN package checks 
for our dataquieR package, which does not even
indirectly use Bioconductor nor cites anything from there. The warning states, 
that an old bioconductor release is not available any more:

> Check: for unstated dependencies in ‘tests’
> Result: WARN
> Warning: unable to access index for repository 
> https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/bioc/src/contrib:
>  cannot open URL 
> 'https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/bioc/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
> Warning: unable to access index for repository 
> https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/data/annotation/src/contrib:
>  cannot open URL 
> 'https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/data/annotation/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
> Warning: unable to access index for repository 
> https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/data/experiment/src/contrib:
>  cannot open URL 
> 'https://bioconductor.org/packages/3.14/data/experiment/src/contrib/PACKAGES'
> Flavor: r-oldrel-windows-ix86+x86_64

I suspect, this WARNING is related with the test infrastructure somehow. Since 
I also have to fix two NOTEs within the next two weeks, I should comment on 
this WARNING too.
What would you propose to do about the WARNING — I cannot address it, because 
dataquieR is not using Bioconductor at all (I’m rather sure about this, because
`grep -ir bioc *` returns nothing, and because the BiocManager package does not 
list https://CRAN.R-project.org/package=BiocManager
in its reverse dependencies).

I expected the WARNING to disappear once someone fixes the suspected problems 
on r-oldrel-windows-ix86+x86_64, but this has not yet happened. Any hints how 
to handle this
are appreciated, thank you in advance,

Stephan
