Hello together,
I have a question regarding the Authors@R field.
When I run R CMD check . in a package either created by myself with
pkgKitten::kitten, usethis::create_package or even on existing packages on
Cran (e.g. the validate package),
I get the following error:
* checking for file ‘./DESCRIPTION’ ... ERROR
Required fields missing or empty:
‘Author’ ‘Maintainer’
* DONE
The corresponding line in the DESCRIPTION file is:
Authors@R: person("Your", "Name", role = c("aut", "cre"),
email = "[email protected]")
and Authors@R:
person("First", "Last", , "[email protected]", role = c("aut",
"cre"))
for pkgKitten and usethis respectively.
Why does this error occur?
With best wishes
Julian
