Hi Mr Tierney,
I have noticed an error message from R 1.12.x's CMD check for a while
(apparently prof Ripley completely rewrote CMD check in R 1.12+)
e.g.:
http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.7/bioc-LATEST/snpMatrix/lamb2-checksrc.html
----------------
* checking R code for possible problems ... NOTE
Warning: non-unique value when setting 'row.names': ‘new’
Error in `row.names<-.data.frame`(`*tmp*`, value = c("1", "new", "new" :
duplicate 'row.names' are not allowed
Calls: <Anonymous> ... rownames<- -> row.names<- -> row.names<-.data.frame
Execution halted
-----------------
yet everything is okey dokey at
http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.7/bioc-LATEST/#S under the snpMatrix
entry.
I believe it might be a bug in codetools::incLocalSrcInfo (used by "R CMD
check") and here is what I think the fix(?) - but I am not entirely sure what
that routine does and why other package writers haven't noticed similiar
problems before:

Apply this "fix" would result in snpMatrix's "R CMD check" churning out:

which is more like expected check warnings.
Care to comment?
