Package no longer on CRAN #103

Closed Carina8899 closed 4 years ago

Carina8899 commented 4 years ago

Hello, I tried to download the weathercan package from CRAN, but the page shows that "Package ‘weathercan’ was removed from the CRAN repository. Formerly available versions can be obtained from the archive." Can anyone tell me what happened?

Argh, I have no idea. I'll try to figure out why it's been removed

So looking into it, I don't have much more information, but it looks like weathercan started failing checks on Linux for patched and devel versions of R.

I'll start working on a fix and will hopefully have it figured out soon.

In the meantime, you're welcome to download the package from the GitHub site. The master branch is the same version that was on CRAN. Go to the main repository page and follow the instructions for the developmental version.

I'll chime in here when I've submitted to CRAN again, so you can then install the 'official' version. Thanks for reporting!

Hi Steffi, thank you so much for looking into it. I just downloaded the developmental version of the package and it works well!

We're back on CRAN so you should be able to update to the CRAN version now, thanks for you patience
