Hi! I'm relying on Authors@R to generate the Author: and Maintainer: headers. When checking my package at win-builder using R-unstable, I got a NOTE that Author field differs from that derived from Authors@R:
>> Author: 'Miquel Garriga [aut, cph], Stefan Gerlach [aut, cph], >> Ion Vasilief [aut, cph], Alex Kargovsky [aut, cph], Knut Franke >> [cph], Alexander Semke [cph], Tilman Benkert [cph], Kasper Peeters >> [cph], Russell Standish [cph], Ivan Krylov [cre, cph]' >> Authors@R: 'Miquel Garriga [aut, cph], Stefan Gerlach [aut, cph], >> Ion Vasilief [aut, cph], Alex Kargovsky [aut, cph], Knut Franke >> [con, cph], Alexander Semke [con, cph], Tilman Benkert [con, cph], >> Kasper Peeters [con, cph], Russell Standish [con, cph], Ivan Krylov >> [cre, cph]' Link to full check output: https://win-builder.r-project.org/EWz9zWS0niO3/ The actual field from DESCRIPTION now looks like this: >> Authors@R: c(person('Miquel', 'Garriga', email = >> 'gbmiq...@gmail.com', role = c('aut', 'cph')), person('Stefan', >> 'Gerlach', email = 'stefan.gerl...@uni-konstanz.de', role = c('aut', >> 'cph')), person('Ion', 'Vasilief', email = 'ion_vasil...@yahoo.fr', >> role = c('aut', 'cph')), person('Alex', 'Kargovsky', email = >> 'kargov...@yumr.phys.msu.su', role = c('aut', 'cph')), >> person('Knut', 'Franke', email = 'knut.fra...@gmx.de', role = >> c('con', 'cph')), person('Alexander', 'Semke', email = >> 'alexander.se...@web.de', role = c('con', 'cph')), person('Tilman', >> 'Benkert', email = 't...@gmx.net', role = c('con', 'cph')), >> person('Kasper', 'Peeters', email = 'kasper.peet...@aei.mpg.de', >> role = c('con', 'cph')), person('Russell', 'Standish', role = >> c('con', 'cph')), person('Ivan', 'Krylov', email = >> 'krylov.r...@gmail.com', role = c('cre', 'cph'))) The version of R I'm currently using is 3.3.3 (2017-03-06) from Debian stable, which might explain the differences in utils:::format.person. What should I do to avoid the NOTE? -- Best regards, Ivan ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
