I found the actual reason: I was really stupid. At the time of testing, I had killed the internet acces. Sorry for bothering you all ...
Berry PS: If you want to know why on earth I did that: Yesterday, I got the error: unable to connect to CRAN.R-project.org on port 80. I couldn't find an effective solution online except for turning of the internet connection while testing - which I did. And hooray, the error changed into a warning - which I felt safe to ignore. Apparently, I should just have waited longer and tried again later, as the condition seems to be temporary in nature. Pretty clear that, if I turn off the internet, checks can't find false URLs. > From: plumm...@iarc.fr > To: berryboessenk...@hotmail.com; lig...@statistik.tu-dortmund.de > CC: r-package-devel@r-project.org > Subject: Re: [R-pkg-devel] FW: CRAN submission berryFunctions 1.8.0 > Date: Wed, 3 Jun 2015 08:02:19 +0000 > > On Wed, 2015-06-03 at 09:51 +0200, Uwe Ligges wrote: >> >> On 03.06.2015 09:48, Berry Boessenkool wrote: >>> >>> Hi, >>> >>> after submitting my package update, CRAN (Brian Ripley) found a couple of >>> warnings / messages. >>> URLs that are not longer existent, a non-ASCII character from copypasting, >>> incorrect title case. >>> Stuff that I should and could definitely solve before submitting. >>> >>> Why did the latest Rdevel (2015-06-01 r68455) CMD check --as-cran not find >>> them? >> >> Your R was not libcurl enabled nor had you the spellchecker installed, I >> guess. > > I got the package source from https://github.com/brry/berryFunctions and > I do get these messages. > > Martyn > >> Best, >> Uwe Ligges >> >> >>> Below are the relevant excerpts. >>> >>> Thanks for any hints about what I may have done wrong, >>> Berry >>> >>> --------- >>> >>>> Found the following (possibly) invalid URLs: >>>> URL: http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/denstrip (moved to >>>> http://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/denstrip/) >>>> From: man/betaPlot.Rd >>>> man/normPlot.Rd >>>> Status: 200 >>>> Message: OK >>>> CRAN URL not in canonical form >>> >>>> URL: http://www.geolinde.musin.de/afrika/pic/klimamuenchen.gif >>>> From: man/climateGraph.Rd >>>> Status: 404 >>>> Message: Not Found >>> >>> [...] >>> >>>> The canonical URL of the CRAN page for a package is >>>> http://cran.r-project.org/package=pkgname >>> >>> >>>> No package encoding and non-ASCII characters in the following R files: >>>> R/groupHist.R >>>> 19: # ignore messages like: argument col is not made use of >>> >>> >>>> The Title field should be in title case, current version then in title >>>> case: >>>> �Function Collection related to Plotting and Hydrology� >>>> �Function Collection Related to Plotting and Hydrology� >>>> >>> >>> >>> [[alternative HTML version deleted]] >>> >>> >>> >>> ______________________________________________ >>> R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list >>> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel >>> >> >> ______________________________________________ >> R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list >> https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
