I'm working to package swirl for Fedora, and appear to have stumbled across an interesting locale requirement for the tests/testthat/test-encoding.R test. Namely I've had to append export LC_ALL="en_US.UTF-8" to the rpm specfile (by default mock only exports LANG="en_US.UTF-8), or building produces the following error:
* checking tests ...

This may or may not be feasible to work around (I'm guessing it has stringi and testthat dependencies, but haven't dug too deeply), but it's a weird enough error that I wanted to document it.
