Ben ... I tried two more times today and still the same issue. Perhaps it is transient on a different time scale than what I have tested. I was hoping to not raise the R dependency level, but had thought about that as well. Thank you for your thoughts.
David ... thank you for the experience and advice. I will try noting that on my submission to CRAN and see what happens. I will report back so others can see my experience with this issue. -----Original Message----- From: R-package-devel <r-package-devel-boun...@r-project.org> On Behalf Of David Hugh-Jones Sent: Wednesday, November 7, 2018 4:24 PM To: Ben Bolker <bbol...@gmail.com> Cc: r-package-devel@r-project.org Subject: Re: [R-pkg-devel] ICU init failed: U_FILE_ACCESS_ERROR My package had this issue and still got accepted.
