We also saw this pop up a few weeks ago in our rcmdcheck
pipeline. The rest of the check process proceeds, and rcmdcheck
runs normally, but Actions still marks this as a failed check.
Example: https://github.com/RMI-PACTA/pacta.workflow.utils/actions/runs/9606136641/job/26495127601#step:4:155
After a little more investigation, it looks like the action is failing to unlink R
, because the macOS-latest
GH runners don't have R installed by default, and definitely not via brew
. Running brew list
shows no R installation.
I think if we add a check that R is in brew list
before trying to unlink, this should eliminate the error.
I don't know enough typescript yet to open a PR for that, but if it were a bash command, it would probably be something like:
#! /bin/sh
# Check that r is installed via brew
BREW_R_VERSION="$(brew info --json r | jq -rc '.[0] | .installed | .[0] | .version')"
echo $BREW_R_VERSION
if [ "$BREW_R_VERSION" == "null" ]; then
echo "R is not installed via brew"
else
echo "R is installed via brew"
# unlink the current version of R
fi

The R-CMD-check workflow here is reported as being successful but also produces the error "macOS-latest (R release) No such keg: /opt/homebrew/Cellar/r" as can be seen here.
I have traced the source of the error to this line in the setup-r installer.ts file.
I am not sure why /opt/homebrew/Cellar/r is missing, but could this situation be prevented or at least be turned into a warning?
