Hello everybody, I developed an R package that depends on packages hosted in GitHub. In the DESCRIPTION file, I added the R packages (from GitHub ) in the "Suggests" section and I included a copy of them in my personal GitHub so they can be accessed in the "Additional_repositories:" section.
Suggests: rmarkdown, ANTsR, ANTsRCore, ITKR, extrantsr, MNITemplate, RAVEL Imports: knitr, oro.nifti, fslr, neurobase Depends: R (>= 3.5) Additional_repositories: https://davidpayares.github.io/drat A copy of the R packages my package needs is in https://davidpayares.github.io/drat . When I submit the package to CRAN, I get this error: Suggests or Enhances not in mainstream repositories: ANTsR, ANTsRCore, ITKR, extrantsr, MNITemplate, RAVEL Availability using Additional_repositories specification: ANTsR yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat ANTsRCore yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat ITKR yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat extrantsr yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat MNITemplate yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat RAVEL yes https://davidpayares.github.io/drat Flavor: r-devel-linux-x86_64-debian-gcc, r-devel-windows-ix86+x86_64 Check: package dependencies, Result: ERROR Packages suggested but not available for checking: 'ANTsR', 'ANTsRCore', 'ITKR', 'extrantsr', 'MNITemplate', 'RAVEL' Namespace dependencies missing from DESCRIPTION Imports/Depends entries: 'MNITemplate', 'RAVEL', 'extrantsr' I found that this is the correct way to add dependencies that are not hosted in CRAN. However, I do not understand why it is not working. If anyone could help me, I would really appreciate it. Thank you so much.
