Dear martin,

thank you very much for your reply. I tried out the following:

- install.packages("limSolve") in R-3.3.1 on Windows 10

This worked out, so comparing to the report under
https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-windows-ix86+x86_64/limSolve-00check.html
it seems like it is only an example of limSolve which throws the error.
Is that of major importance?
Of course I can still try to contact the authors of limSolve.


the example represents a test of the code, and apparently the code fails the test, so yes, it's important!

If you try to install limSolve from R_HOME/bin/x86_64 things go fine, but from R_HOME/bin/i386/Rgui.exe, you'll see that it is 'only available from source'. Likewise if you try to load the version you installed under x86_64 but under i386, you'll see that the 32-bit DLL is not available.

It's much better for the package to be fixed up-stream than to introduce all kinds of conditions under which your package would be available.

As Valerie took over the review of my package (YAPSA), I also wrote this on
https://github.com/Bioconductor/Contributions/issues/71

Thank you very much, best Daniel.

        Dear all,
        I am trying to submit my software package called YAPSA to
        Bioconductor. I
        repeatedly get an error in the automatic checks on moscato1
        (Windows),
        whereas on the other operating systems my package is built and
        checked
        without any problem. For the log please also feel free to follow
        this link:
        
http://bioconductor.org/spb_reports/YAPSA_buildreport_20160727111256.html

        The main problem on moscato1 seems to be:

        Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) :
          DLL 'limSolve' not found: maybe not installed for this
        architecture?

        Do you have any tricksor suggestions how to overcome this?
        Thank you very much in advance for your help and cooperation,


    Hi Daniel --

    From

    
https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-release-windows-ix86+x86_64/limSolve-00check.html

    it appears that limSolve fails to build on Windows under R-3.3.1.
    The solution is to get maintainer('limSolve') to fix their package,
    or to find a solution to your problem that does not rely on limSolve.

    Martin

        best regards Daniel.
