rbub check failure 3 of xx: failed to failed to download dependencies readxl, testthat kableExtra

[dpc10ster]

This is output with chk4 <- rhub::check(packagePath, platform = platforms[[1]][4]) :

E  checking package dependencies (3.3s)
   Package required but not available: ‘readxl’

   Packages suggested but not available: 'testthat', 'kableExtra'

   The suggested packages are required for a complete check.
   Checking can be attempted without them by setting the environment
   variable _R_CHECK_FORCE_SUGGESTS_ to a false value.

   See section ‘The DESCRIPTION file’ in the ‘Writing R Extensions’
   manual.

Same error with chk4 <- rhub::check(packagePath, platform = platforms[[1]][5]) :

Are platforms 4 and 5 are Solaris (solaris-x86-patched and solaris-x86-patched-ods)? The CRAN check for readxl, testthat and kableExtra no longer includes the results of Solaris builds.

Thanks; I will skip these builds in future.
