Severity: normal
Hello,
since debhelper compatibility level 9 some automatic test is approached
if upstream provides some tests suite in a default way. You can also
add overrides to adapt to specific upstream way to run a test suite.
Since for building R packages cdbs is used this is not done
automatically. So I tried to find out a way how this can be done also
with cdbs[1] but I did not got any response.
Since I think we should really try to test packages
* before uploaded
* when beeing autobuilded
I consider running the test suite as very important. Please try to
provide a method in
/usr/share/R/debian/r-cran.mk
which does the testing or consider switching the build system for R
packages to dh which has quite transparent features for testing.
Kind regards and thanks for maintaining r-base-dev
Andreas.
