My program puts the output into the folder where it found the input.

Please let the user specify the output dir. Otherwise there is the risk to overwrite files that the user want to keep.



Must I move the input files to tmpdir() or are they already there?

Why shoudl files be in tmpdir()? Only those you created there...

    This is a new check:

    You must not write into the user's filespace without explicit
    agreement by the user (by specifying path/name).

    Note that some users won't even have permissions to write into the
    package's installation directory if that is set up site wide by an
    admin, for example.

    So please use tempdir() in the examples.

        Hi Cathy,

        I also had troubles with debian (Fedora only gave warnings) and
        no problems with other systems. Mine was related to me writing a
        file (or rather trying to write) in a working directory other
        than tempdir (can be retrieved by tempdir()). I now write it to
        tempdir and then set the old working directory again at the end
        of the example. Perhaps that is somehow helpful for your case too?

        I can highly recommend to test your tar.gz file with the check()
        function of the rhub package. You can for example run
        check("pathtoyourpackage", platform = "debian-gcc-devel") or
        check_for_cran("pathtoyourpackage", platform =
        "debian-gcc-devel"), i.e. test your package on debian without
        troubles.

        Best,
        Christine

        Betreff: [R-pkg-devel] File name error

        I am getting the following error from the auto-checks when
        trying to submit a package to CRAN:
        r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc

        Error in pdf(file = fileName4, width = 8, height = 10) :
            cannot open file

        Since this works for ALL other flavors, I am assuming it may be
        some file name restrictions unique to debian-gcc???  I can't
        think what else would cause it to fail only in the OS.

        debian doesn't like "--"?
