Hi Tiago, Without knowing which package you're talking about or a link to the check results, it's impossible to know whether that warning is a proper one or a side effect of something else.
In general though: it is well known that relying on devtools is not enough for a good CRAN submission. The guidelines for CRAN clearly state : "Please ensure that R CMD check --as-cran has been run on the tarball to be uploaded before submission. This should be done with the current version of R-devel (or if that is not possible and explained in the submission, current R-patched or the current release of R.)" So before submitting a package to CRAN and after running your devtools:: check_etc, open a terminal and run the following commands: R CMD build path_to_pkg_folder R CMD check --as-cran package_version.tar.gz The --as-cran is important, as is doing so against a R-devel. I use devtools myself extensively, but these checks have to be done outside the RStudio ecosystem to be sure.

When I submitted it to CRAN it did not pass the incoming checks automatically and I got the following WARNING. Quitting from lines 108-117 (vignettes_metan.Rmd) Error: processing vignette 'vignettes_metan.Rmd' failed with diagnostics: Unknown colour name: transparent It seems that this warning is related to a function with the argument 'col.segm.gen = "transparent"'. I don't changed anything in this function and in the last submissions no warning was related. For curiosity I ran: > col2rgb("yellow") [,1] red 255 green 255 blue 0 > col2rgb("transparent") [,1] red 255 green 255 blue 255 No warnings or errors were observed while running devtools::check_rhub(), devtools::check_win_devel(), and devtools::check_win_release() Any suggestion?
