In trying to develop a package to be submitted to CRAN, when I do Install
and Reload or devtools::check(), I get the warning:
Warning: replacing previous import 'ellipse::pairs' by 'graphics::pairs'
when loading 'karon'
Warning: replacing previous import 'MVN::mvn' by 'mgcv::mvn' when loading
'karon'
I need one function each from the packages ellipse and mgcv (I do not need
pairs from ellipse and mvn from mgcv). To restrict to the function that I
need, I have used the commands
@importFrom ellipse ellipse
@importFrom mgcv in.out
NAMESPACE includes the lines
importFrom(ellipse,ellipse)
importFrom(mgcv,in.out)
However, DESCRIPTION does not restrict the functions imported from ellipse
and mgcv; it has
Imports: MVN, MASS, scatterplot3d, rgl, mgcv, randomForest, rpart, partykit,
Formula, ellipse,..
Do these warnings need to be solved before submitting to CRAN?
Is it necessary to edit DESCRIPTION If so, what should be done?
Is there some other potential solution?
I don't know if they *must* be fixed, but they should be. Something in
your NAMESPACE file (derived from some comment in your code by roxygen2)
is importing ellipse::pairs, even though you say you don't want to do
that. You should fix that.
From what we can see, your DESCRIPTION file is fine. The problem lies
in NAMESPACE.
