I'm getting this NOTE on r-hub's linux-x86_64-ubuntu-gcc platform. It
seems weird because the Author field was automatically derived from
Authors@R (there is no Author: field in the DESCRIPTION file ...)
I think I'm going to write this off as a glitch (I haven't seen it on
my own Linux or MacOS systems, or travis, or win-builder ...), but has
anyone seen it before? Am I doing something silly?
