   Why?

Because that is what you will send to others. The reason to check a directory instead of a tar file is to save time: you don't need to recompile all the files, as a normal check does.

  The help says: "Check R packages from package sources, which can
be directories or package 'tar' archives with extension '.tar.gz',
'.tar.bz2' or '.tgz'."  I just skimmed through the relevant section
(1.3.1) in the R Extensions manual, and it doesn't say anything about
running on tarballs being preferred.

   Add my vote to the wishlist that the src directory should get cleaned
after R CMD check.

Then the advantage of checking a directory would be lost.

So, it'd be something like:

R CMD build pkg
R CMD check pkg_version.tar.gz

Dear expeRts,

I work on the R package "nacopula" 
(https://r-forge.r-project.org/projects/nacopula/) under Mac OS X 10.6.7 (MacBook Pro). 
The session info is:
R version 2.14.0 Under development (unstable) (2011-05-02 r55730)
Platform: x86_64-apple-darwin9.8.0/x86_64 (64-bit)

When I apply "R CMD check nacopula" my source directory is filled with .o files 
(which leads to
a warning for the next check). Further, if I use R 2.14.0, the check produces a file 
"nacopula-Ex.R"
on the top level, i.e., where folders like R, src, tests, man, inst, and demo 
reside.
Shouldn't the source directory stay nice-and-clean, without being filled with .o
files and example files?

Cheers,

Marius
