Dunno what you mean by the "R CMD build log". I could grepped "re-saving" on all files and came up empty handed. > - Have you set the BuildResaveData field in your DESCRIPTION file?

Does that reduce the size of > your data files? Never heard of that. Tried it just now and it reduced the size from 285607 bytes to 161743 bytes.

Now that I have applied tools::resaveRdaFiles(), I no longer get the NOTE from R CMD check. So I guess my problem is solved. Thanks. But this still leaves the question: Why the <expletive deleted> is R CMD check telling me to use the flag --resave-data, when I *just did that*??? cheers, Rolf -- Honorary Research Fellow Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276 ______________________________________________ R-package-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-package-devel
