System Libraries #131

Closed shikokuchuo closed 2 years ago

shikokuchuo commented 2 years ago

I see this section of the metrics has been turned on. How is this actually populated?

nanonext (CRAN package) uses libnng and has 'system requirements' specified in DESCRIPTION.

But it doesn't feature in this list. It is quite a new package though, maybe it needs time to get added to some database.

Thanks! The database is populated live, that should not be the issue.

This FAQ: https://github.com/r-universe-org/help#how-does-r-universe-analyze-system-dependencies-cc

So it looks like the package on r-universe was built locally using cmake instead of libnng-dev.

jeroen commented 2 years ago

I have added libnng-dev to our build image, such that nanotext can use this now instead of building it's own. Now it should show up on the results.

shikokuchuo commented 2 years ago

Thanks as always! Using system libs / building using cmake I'm fine either way. I just wondered if there was something else that I was supposed to do, but seems not.
