Warning message Requires (indirectly) orphaned package: 'gtools' pops up when checking ss3diags.

(As of 6/17/2022) maintainer of gtools is ORPHANED (https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gtools/index.html)

Initially, the r4ss dependency may of was the cause, however the it was give a simlar issue:
suggests orphaned package: 'gtools'. gtools is a suggested dependency for r4ss,

gplots is this package dependency that requires gtools.

To resolve this:

Contact the gtools maintainer to fix OPRHANED status on CRAN
Maintainer Replacement/Forked Repo
Replace gplots dependencies on ss3diags.

There is one instance that ss3diags uses gplots. It is used to create a 2D empirical confidence regions (kobe plot regions): stock and harvest, by kernel posterior.

Updating gtools to 3.9.3 resolves the orphaned waring.
