This sounds like a LaTeX bug in whatever system CRAN is using to produce
the PDF. Like you, I don't see footnotes, I see the link inline with a
complete URL. I think you'd get the footnotes if the LaTeX hyperref.sty
file is not found, but there may be other ways to trigger that option.

Dear all,
recently I noticed an unexpected effect. The PDF-manual built from the
package’s .Rd-files looked different to what I was used to beforeand to
the one rendered locally. Specifically: If the reference-section looks
like this
\references{
foo \href{bar}{baz}
...
}
previously "foo" was intended (like a normal paragraph), "bar" formatted
in red and "baz" the URL.
Example of what I got instead:
https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/replicateBE/replicateBE.pdf
(first occurrence at page 5).
In the references there are no direct links but a numbered footnotes in
a mono-spaced font running beyond the right margin of the page. The two
links of page 5:
In ABE.Rd
https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-guideline/guideline-investigation-bioequivalence-rev1_en.pdf
https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-guideline/guideline-pharmacokinetic-clinical-evaluation-modified-release-dosage-forms_en.pdf
ABE.Rd is correctly rendered into ABE.html
In the two footnotes of the PDF links are truncated
https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-guideline/guideline-investigation-bioequivalence-rev1_
https://www.ema.europa.eu/en/documents/scientific-guideline/guideline-pharmacokinetic-clinical-evaluation-modified-release-dosage-forms_
Of course, both are punished with a HTTP 404.
Cheers,
Helmut
PS: I’m aware that
\references{
\enumerate{
\item foo \href{bar}{baz}
}
}
produces *exactly* this effect. Didn't use it.
