packrat package submissions fail due to failures in jetpack #22

Closed kevinushey closed 2 years ago

kevinushey commented 3 years ago

E.g.

    ── Error (test-jetpack.R:37:3): it works ───────────────────────────────────────
    Error: Errors occurred when fetching source files:
    Error in getSourceForPkgRecord(pkgRecord, sourceDir, availablePkgs, repos) :
      Failed to retrieve package sources for packrat 0.6.0 from CRAN (internet connectivity issue?) [0.5.0 is current]

Would it be possible for jetpack to handle the case where the version of Packrat being checked is newer than what is declared to be available on CRAN?

Hey @kevinushey, sorry that's holding things up. I think it's due to the packrat::init() call, which tries to download Packrat from CRAN. Is there a way for that method to use a local copy of Packrat instead?

Feel free to move forward with the submission process if possible, as the tests should work again once the new version is out. Since Packrat is soft deprecated, I've also been planning to move Jetpack to renv. It's mostly done, so will try to get that out.
