In particular the magrittr package seems to be broken on the pre-test machine.
I submitted a new version of the pkgload package on Friday, again on Tuesday and today (Wednesday). All passed fine on the Debian machine, but failed during installation on the Windows builder. The failure is due to a soft load time dependency on testthat, which itself has a hard dependency on magrittr. Because the magrittr installation is broken my package (pkgload) fails to install. e.g. * installing *source* package 'pkgload' ... ** using staged installation ** R ** inst ** byte-compile and prepare package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ** testing if installed package can be loaded from temporary location *** arch - i386 Error: package or namespace load failed for 'pkgload': .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'pkgload', details: call: loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]) error: there is no package called 'magrittr' Error: loading failed Execution halted *** arch - x64 Error: package or namespace load failed for 'pkgload': .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'pkgload', details: call: loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]) error: there is no package called 'magrittr' Error: loading failed Execution halted ERROR: loading failed for 'i386', 'x64' * removing 'd:/RCompile/CRANincoming/R-devel/lib/pkgload' I am pretty confident there is nothing wrong in the pkgload package that is causing this. The checks pass fine on a local windows machine. Hopefully this will be cleared up by the CRAN maintainers soon.
