Thank you very much for your response.
I actually tried yesterday to publish the package to CRAN.
Unfortunately, my computer seems to behave funny; and I did not receive
a confirmatory e-mail either.
Messages & Errors:
✔ Package submission successful
ℹ Check your email for confirmation link.
! Don't forget to tag this release once accepted by CRAN
Error in (function (..., row.names = NULL, check.rows = FALSE,
check.names = TRUE, :
arguments imply differing number of rows: 1, 0
In addition: Warning messages:
1: In system2("git", c("rev-parse", "--abbrev-ref", "HEAD"), stdout =
TRUE) :
running command '"git" rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD' had status 127
2: In system2("git", c("status", "--porcelain=v1"), stdout = TRUE) :
running command '"git" status --porcelain=v1' had status 127
3: In system2("git", c("rev-parse", "HEAD"), stdout = TRUE) :
running command '"git" rev-parse HEAD' had status 127
✔ Setting active project to 'C:/.../Rpdb'
1.) I do not understand if this means, that the submission actually failed?
2.) Should I try to resubmit?
If yes: should I increase the version number to 2.3.2 (from 2.3.1)?
3.) Old questions
The remaining questions should be sorted out now:
- the issue was if to delete the e-mail from the original author;
- I left the e-mail for now; I will phase out the e-mail address, once I
start to work on my own on the package (maybe I'll have some time next
month);
Sincerely,
Leonard

1.) I am a little bit unsure about the LICENSE file - see below (in-text).
2.) There is a new error in the meantime:
- the check works on Windows, but fails everywhere else with:
Warning: Found the following significant warnings:
Warning: 'rgl.init' failed, running with 'rgl.useNULL = TRUE'.
On non Windows systems, You cannot use rgl if you do not have any X11
available.
Support for Unix alikes is optional, so in packages X11() should be used
conditionally after checking capabilities("X11").
Googling the web was not very informative either: it mentions something
about quartz device - but I am uncertain what to do.

Dear Members,
I would like to reanimate the archived package Rpdb:

2.b.) Description file
- I left the original author as the author (with the provided e-mail
address): should I delete this email?
It probably doesn't matter than much either way, but since the author
doesn't appear to respond to emails to that address, I personally
would lean towards deleting it.
Do *not* delete any authours/copyright holders.
- I have added myself as maintainer; [...]
- updated the licence to GPL v3: the original does not specify any
version number;
Is there anything else that needs to be done?
There are at least three 3 R CMD check failures you need to address:
* [...]
* You need to add LICENSE to .Rbuildignore, or and IMO better, delete
that file and use usethis::use_gpl3_license() to the license in
markdown form, and correctly ignored for CRAN submission
If I understand correctly:
- delete the "LICENSE" file and use usethis::use_gpl3_license(), which
adds the "LICENSE.md" file;
- should I also add some code to the DESCRIPTION file?
LICENSE: GPL-3
in the DESCRIPTION should be fine, and no license file unless you want
to add additional restrictions that are permitted by GPL-3 such as
attribution requirements.
No idea what usethis::use_gpl3_license() does.
Best,
Uwe Ligges
* Many examples use `\%in\%` instead of `%in%.
Hopefully, this is fixed now. But it was quit a hassle to find out which
files were affected. [I could have used gawk, but the error-reporting
could be improved as well!]
Sincerely,
Leonard
To make these sorts of problems easier to spot in the future I'd
suggest setting up a GitHub action to automatically run R CMD check
every time you push to GitHub. One easy way to do that is to run
usethis::use_github_action("check-standard").
