Resubmission

I am resubmitting my package after expanding the documentation to have \value and \examples documentation for all functions. We are planning to publish a paper accompanying this software after the CRAN package is released, and then I shall quote those references in the DESCRIPTION after that paper is released.

Resubmission

I am resubmitting my package without the "+ file LICENSE" in DESCRIPTION and the LICENSE file because they were superfluous, as I am using GPL-3.

Original message

Dear CRAN maintainers,

I have uploaded a new package named retrocombinator to CRAN. The package is also hosted on https://github.com/drostlab/retrocombinator

I have read the CRAN policies and agree with them.

All automated checks have passed, with 0 ERRORs and 0 WARNINGs. Listed below are some NOTEs from R CMD CHECK, and why they are OK.

Thank you very much!

Kind regards, Anindya

R CMD check - possible NOTEs and explanations

New submission
  • Note that this is my first submission to CRAN
* checking installed package size ... NOTE
  installed size is  5.1Mb
  sub-directories of 1Mb or more:
    libs   4.5Mb
  • This R package uses C++ code underneath for optimisation, and links the C++ code to R using the Rcpp package. On some machines, where binaries are compiled with debugging symbols left in, the overall installed size becomes 5.1Mb, with the libs directory taking up 4.5Mb. On any machine that strips out this debug information during compilation, which is what most machines do, this is not a problem. On exceptional machines, debugging information can be stripped out by having SHLIB_CXX11LDFLAGS = -Wl,-S -shared in Makevars, which dramatically reduces the size of the package.
Possibly mis-spelled words in DESCRIPTION:
  extrachromosomal (9:125)
  retrotransposon (3:57, 9:89)
  • The words "extrachromosomal" and "retrotransposon" (/"Retrotransposon") are not mis-spelled, they are words in the research field of biology which is investigating transposable elements that copy and paste themselves into different genomic locations via RNA intermediates.
