Those were Simon's words, not mine, but I think he referred to the long-ish and painful thread here: http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lang.r.devel/32779 Feel free to ignore the title, and most assertions by the OP which were never replicated by anybody else. The "do not build in src" mantra was repeated a few times, and as I recall also refuted once (not by me). That is not a topic I care much about; I use a shortcut, am aware of its (theoretical?) limits but for the casual R CMD check use I get out of R-devel never had an issue. | I am fine with these approaches and kind of already follow them. | I imagine that after an R-devel update you have to re-install all the contrib | packages that need to compile library objects, right?
