You should have gotten an e-mail to the maintainer address -- check

The error I see is in
https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/donttest/CopernicusMarine.out (via
the "donttest" link; the details of this test are here
<https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/donttest/README.txt>, via
<https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_issue_kinds.html>.
The policy <https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/policies.html> that
you're violating is probably this one:
* Packages which use Internet resources should fail gracefully with an
informative message if the resource is not available or has changed (and
not give a check warning nor error).
====
I am always confused by "\donttest", which *is* tested by CRAN in
some cases.
Finally, there is \donttest, used (at the beginning of a separate line)
to mark code that should be run by example() but not by R CMD check (by
default: the option --run-donttest can be used). This should be needed
only occasionally but can be used for code which might fail in
circumstances that are hard to test for, for example in some locales.
(Use e.g. capabilities() or nzchar(Sys.which("someprogram")) to test for
features needed in the examples wherever possible, and you can also use
try() or tryCatch(). Use interactive() to condition examples which need
someone to interact with.) Note that code included in \donttest must be
correct R code, and any packages used should be declared in the
DESCRIPTION file. It is good practice to include a comment in the
\donttest section explaining why it is needed.
For what it's worth, the "additional issues" link seems to be broken:

Hi fellow developers,
By accident I discovered that one of my packages has been archived by CRAN
(https://cran.r-project.org/package=CopernicusMarine) because it violates CRAN
policies. Can this happen unannounced? If so, how can I discover the specific
violation, such that I can fix this, or at least avoid it in my other packages?
If not, how could I get a copy of the announcement?
Any suggestions are welcome.
Kind regards,
Pepijn
