I have read NOTE in R CRAN Check: No repository set, so cyclic dependency check skipped and to the best of my knowledge followed the suggestions. Specifically I have an .Rprofile
file in ~/
with the line options(repos = c(CRAN=\"http://cran.r-project.org\")
. I ran the bash script at the bottom of the page and still have two notes instead of the one I would expect about a New submission.
bash-3.2$ ${R} CMD check --as-cran ${name}
* using log directory ‘/private/tmp/deptest.Rcheck’
* using R version 3.1.2 (2014-10-31)
* using platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0 (64-bit)
* using session charset: UTF-8
* checking for file ‘deptest/DESCRIPTION’ ... OK
* checking extension type ... Package
* this is package ‘deptest’ version ‘1.0’
* checking CRAN incoming feasibility ... NOTE
Maintainer: ‘John Doe <[email protected]>’
New submission
* checking package namespace information ... OK
* checking package dependencies ... NOTE
No repository set, so cyclic dependency check skipped
* checking if this is a source package ... OK
Any suggestions how to eliminate the second note about No repository set, so cyclic dependency check skipped
when running R CMD check --as-cran
would be most welcome. I get the same two notes when trying to create a much larger package as well. The same two notes appear when I try to build a package using RStudio as the editor for what that is worth.

R version 3.1.2 (2014-10-31)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin13.4.0 (64-bit)
locale:

attached base packages:

To verify the contents of .Rprofile
I entered:
ip-152010130116:~ alan$ pwd
/Users/alan
ip-152010130116:~ alan$ open -a TextEdit .Rprofile
and the single line in .Rprofile
is
options(repos = c(CRAN = "http://cran.r-project.org"))
Thanks in advance
What is the likelihood CRAN will accept a package with the NOTE
No repository set, so cyclic dependency check skipped
?
I had your problem too, and fixed it by adding the following to .Rprofile:
local({r <- getOption("repos"); r["CRAN"] <- "http://ftp.ussg.iu.edu/CRAN/"; options(repos = r)})
I think your issue is because you're not pointing to a specific CRAN mirror. You will want to change the repository to reflect the mirror nearest you.
