Dear R developers,
As far as I can see
R CMD CHECK --run-donttest
does not test the \donttest examples.
By contrast, --run-dontrun appears to run the \dontrun examples as expected.
I have prepared a minimal package archive for illustrating this bug,
which I can send to anyone interested (but I
Hi,
I’ve been using R on and off for a couple of years. I think R is pretty great
but one thing I’d like to see improved is the way packages are organised.
Instead of CRAN being a long list of packages having a short & usually

Hi,
I think much of this is simply impossible to do. CRAN packages are
written and maintained by thousands of people, how are you planning to

You're right -- I was being sloppy, that's worth clarifying. I think I
originally meant

I"ve never looked to see if it differs among mirrors. I believe this is
just an internal log file that is produced according to the default Apache

A little more details about the metacran search, to show how it (imo)
solves a different problem than sos, rseek, RSiteSearch, or
rdocumentation.org.
1. The most important difference is that it searches for _packages_.
The results are packages, not functions, vignettes, etc. E.g. if you
