Hi all,


I'm trying to submit a package to the CRAN that further examines results from the 
"citrus" package as done for an accepted publication (available on Github: 
<https://github.com/nolanlab/citrus>).


I do not get any errors when using devtools::check() on my Mac, which already has the 
citrus package installed. However, I am getting errors during the CRAN submission 
check 
<https://win-builder.r-project.org/incoming_pretest/mineCitrus_1.0.0_20180702_172340/>.


I've tried searching Stack Overload and other CRAN packages with 
Additional_repositories fields, but none of the applicable solutions have worked. I'm 
pretty sure it's the loading of the citrus package that is causing the error and have 
added the Additional_repositories field with a link the package on Github, but still 
haven't been able to resolve the issue. There are very specific installation 
instructions for the package 
<https://github.com/nolanlab/citrus/wiki/Installing-Citrus>, which may be 
contributing to issues.


How should I properly specify dependencies on the 
nolanlab/citrus<https://github.com/nolanlab/citrus> Github package for my CRAN 
package?

I don't think you posted your DESCRIPTION file, but the likely problem based on the check log is that your "Additional_repositories" field points to something that CRAN doesn't recognize as an R package repository.

Probably the easiest way to create the right structure is to use the drat package; see https://github.com/eddelbuettel/drat for instructions.
