As I said I see no point in makeing some effort to skip tests if the issue will become void once ftpmaster has accepted r-cran-vcr (I've pinged again to rank this before any random r-cran-* package which to my experience worked in the past). I've even realised that the changelog of r-cran-worrms contained a Closes: #900083 since a long time and I forgot to remove this before uploading the package in the transition upload. I think that should be OK considering that it can be expected to be really fixed soon (if not the other open bugs will remember me to check again. I do not see any reason to do reopen - close ping-pong since there is no need to change anything in the package - I've checked locally that the test suite passes now. > Another package recently uploaded with failing tests is r-cran-data.table > [1].
