biglm and R-release on Linux #152

Closed josherrickson closed 5 years ago

josherrickson commented 6 years ago

Noticed that we're seeing an error on CRAN related to biglm, only on R release on Linux:

   no applicable method for 'bigglm' applied to an object of class "data.frame"

I don't think this is our fault, given that biglm exhibits the same error: https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_biglm.html

No Action on our part, just noting in case it comes up in the future.

Thanks for flagging the upstream issue. CRAN has put us on notice that optmatch will be remove on 7/2 if this isn't fixed. I've email them to point out the upstream nature and the fact that is intermittent (i.e., I can't recreate on my linux install). I'll update this issue if we get a response.

I would suggest we move all of the biglm related testing material into a file that we no longer include in the tarballs we submit to CRAN. Similar to what we've recently decided to try out for RItools; see discussion of recent pull requests on that repo, and associated references to that comprise.

The tidyverse package 'broom' is being hit by this too (https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_broom.html). I don't see any indication in their repo they're aware of or have addressed it yet, but we can hopefully take a hint from them when they do address it.

@markmfredrickson Any update from CRAN? Do we need to push out a release removing these test before Monday?

markmfredrickson commented 6 years ago

We're ok for biglm. They want a fix for the MASS:: issues in #151. I'll get a release pushed with the fix for #151.

@josherrickson conveyed via email:

Just wanted to point out that the biglm bug has vanished https://cran.r-project.org/web/checks/check_results_optmatch.html, though without an apparent update to biglm.

I think that means we're good on this issue. Closing.
