Re: [R-pkg-devel] How to request for an Non Maintainer update - NMU

Hi, A note for the list, since this may pop up again: ggtern is not abandoned, and is back on CRAN. The active development repo is on bitbucket at https://bitbucket.org/nicholasehamilton/ggtern/src/master/ There is also a github repo https://github.com/nicholasehamilton/ggtern that is not act

[R-pkg-devel] New R CMD check warnings for html files

Background: An old package that I maintain on CRAN recently stopped working due to changes in R 4.3.0. In a previous post ( https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2023q2/009268.html) people here helped me find the best solution to the crash bug. I would like to push this fix to CRAN as qui

I think trying to guess where topics have moved will be hard. I'll consider version links. David On Fri, 30 Jun 2023 at 17:04, Duncan Murdoch wrote: > I agree, really nice. > > One suggestion would be to check for the existence of the corresponding > topic link. > > For example, >

I agree, really nice. One suggestion would be to check for the existence of the corresponding topic link. For example, links to , which doesn't exist. The

Nice! (I like "A longer description will go here eventually.") It would be cute/handy to have navigation links available for "go to this help page in the next (previous) version of R" (if it's not a huge pain) On 2023-06-30 11:10 a.m., David Hugh-Jones wrote: OK, so I took Jeff's hint and

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Public URLs for help for versions of base packages

There are plenty of places to find current docs. I think it’s fine to have versioned ones also. I agree it would be a good idea to clearly signal “hey, this is an old version” - indeed I’ve been bitten by that in python before. I’m working on this now… will see what I can do. Does anyone happen to

Re: [R-pkg-devel] length() conflict with C++17

Yeah, I think both `R_NO_REMAP` and rearranging the includes are good solutions, personally I would do both. There is a container at https://r-hub.github.io/containers/ if you want to make sure that you fixed everything: docker run -ti ghcr.io/r-hub/containers/clang17 bash Or, you can try the new

[R-pkg-devel] length() conflict with C++17

rgl has a lot of C++ code which is now getting errors in the clang17 tests on CRAN: https://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/bdr/clang17/rgl.log I haven't looked at the whole list yet, but many of the errors arise because R's include/Rinternals.h defines a length() macro, and that conflicts with a de
