[R-pkg-devel] new package version fails on r-devel fedora clang

[Tony Wilkes]

Hi everyone,

Sorry, false alarm.
There's probably no problem on the side of CRAN.
The problem was probably on my side.

My code is not wrong per-s�, but I created an additional if()else() statement in rcpp_bc_b, but left the MACRO - which itself has many if-else statements - the same. And each of those "if" leads to a whole set of for-loops, thus causing the compiled code to become much larger than necessary. And the compiler for fedora clang took too long to compile that script as a consequence, creating an installation fail.

I've already send a fixed version, broadcast 0.1.5.1, to CRAN, that should fix this issue.

Kind regards,

Tony

Onderwerp: new package version fails on r-devel fedora clang

Hi everyone,

I submitted an update for my broadcast R-package yesterday on CRAN.
Prior to submission I checked the package with R CMD check, devtools::check_win_devel(), with devtools::check_mac_release(), and with various operating systems via GitHub actions.
No problems were found.

But I see on the CRAN page that the new version of broadcast fails to install on r-devel fedora clang.
The install log can be found here: https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/R.check/r-devel-linux-x86_64-fedora-clang/broadcast-00install.html

It's unclear to me why exactly installation fails. The only concrete statement I can find in the install log is "CPU time limit exceeded". Does this mean the installation simply took too long? If it is something else, what then happened exactly? And how can I fix it?

Thanks in advance!

Kind regards,

Tony
