Add --no-manual to build_args when it is set in args #191

Closed dmurdoch closed 2 years ago

dmurdoch commented 2 years ago

This command

rcmdcheck(args="--no-manual")

will try to build the manual in the R CMD build step. This confuses people, e.g. see this thread: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2022q3/008405.html . rcmdcheck should add --no-manual to build_args if it is set in args.

--no-manual means something different for R CMD build and R CMD check, so we are not going to do this, I am afraid.
