All, Thank you for your feedback and suggestions. Yes, the package is Colossus (https://github.com/ericgiunta/Colossus). From April to September of this year version 1.1.1 was available on CRAN while I updated the GitHub version, with no issues on CRAN. Then earlier this month I updated to vers

Hi, I run an updated Fedora platform, and can build R under clang 18.1.8. If the affected package is Colossus, and https://github.com/ericgiunta/Colossus is the appropriate repo, could you indicate where you posted the error reports, and if they are not on the repo, please commit and push them

Dear Eric, While changing the version number of an old package could solve this, it is a work-around that won't help much: Users will be able to install the binaries of an old package without the new fixes and improvements of the later at the cost of another submission, which might delay the submi

Hello all, Recently I submitted a large update to the package I maintain and was unable to resolve the testing errors prior to it being archived. I've been unable to reproduce the errors, so I expect to have to setup my own fedora_clang virtual machine to debug my package. Ideally I'd want a pr
