I recently submitted an updated version of my package asremlPlus to CRAN and it
did not pass incoming checks automatically because there were 3 Notes.
One Note was straightforward to fix and using rhub::check_for_cran I having
verified that it is fixed. The rhub response from Windows server 2008 r-devel
and Fedora linux, r-devel, clang was as follows:
-----
License components with restrictions and base license permitting such:
MIT + file LICENSE
File 'LICENSE':
YEAR: 2019
COPYRIGHT HOLDER: CHRIS BRIEN
Looks like you have an extra line between YEAR and COPYRIGHT HOLDER?
Simply omitting that should solve the issue.
Nevertheless, I do not believe you had a lot trouble getting this to
CRAN in the past.

Suggests or Enhances not in mainstream repositories:
asreml
* checking package dependencies ... NOTE
Package which this enhances but not available for checking: 'asreml'

The second note (concerning asreml) is expected and means that asremlPlus will
never pass the incoming check automatically.
However, the first note concerning the license is not one that I had received
on previous submissions, the most recent prior submission being 9/01/2019. The
only change that has been made to the LICENSE file since then is the YEAR.
The thing is that I do not know what is giving rise to the message and I need
help to work out how to proceed. I do not want to resubmit to CRAN if there is
some modification that I should make that will remove the License note.
So, is the message
(1) one that I should now expect, given the MIT license, and I can resubmit to
CRAN,
(2) an indication of a problem with the license that is now being detected and
needs to be fixed, or
(3) an indication of some other problem that needs attention?
Any help is much appreciated,
Cheers,
Chris
