[Rd] Suggested dependencies in context of R CMD check

2016-04-04 Thread Jan Górecki
Dear R team, Are suggested dependencies mandatory in context of `R CMD check` when using env var `_R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_=FALSE`? Suggested dependencies are nice because are optional. But that feature often isn't valid when trying to run `R CMD check` on them. I would like to use `export _R_CHEC

Jan and Hadley, There's also the issue of tests, vignettes, or examples requiring Suggested packages (one of the core applications of Suggests, in fact). These are all checked by R CMD check, so to ensure any package which should pass check would do so without suggested packages installed would re
