I'm not sure who you are arguing with, but if you do file a

Hopefully a quick question. My package has a NEWS.Rd file that is not
being found by news.
The news function calls tools:::.build_news_db which has this line:
nfile - file.path(dir, inst, NEWS.Rd)
So it appears that the news function is searching for
mypackage/inst/NEWS.Rd.
However, Writing R
If you look at tools:::.build_news_db, the plain text NEWS file is
searched for in pkg/NEWS and pkg/inst/NEWS, but NEWS.Rd in only
searched for in pkg/inst/NEWS.Rd.
Looks like a bug to me.
I *think*.
Thanks,

pkg/inst/NEWS.Rd is moved to pkg/NEWS.Rd at build time, but for
installed packages, news tried to load pkg/inst/NEWS.Rd.
I'm going to file a bug report.

package containing NEWS.Rd in the inst directory
