The "oce" package for oceanographic analysis is failing a check on the

 The problem seems to relate to the checking vignette outputs.

According to 
https://www.r-project.org/nosvn/winutf8/ucrt3/CRAN/checks/gcc10-UCRT/README.txt,
 that test setup is experimental.  Does that mean that I ought to I ignore the 
FAIL status for this machine, perhaps checking it once in a while to see if it 
changes?

A similarly looking problem exists for multiple packages. It may be related to some setup on the checking system or some more general problem not specifically related to your package, I didn't yet have time to diagnose.

Alternatively, if I am advised to fix the problem, I wonder whether there a way 
for me to run tests with rhub, winbuilder, or something similar?  (I do not 
have access to a windows machine.)
For now there is a virtual machine setup (you can install a free-for-testing Windows virtual machine). A link is in the README or here https://developer.r-project.org/Blog/public/2021/03/18/virtual-windows-machine-for-checking-r-packages/index.html

This is available for package developers to debug issues with their packages, but in this case it really may be something unrelated to your package, so unless you wanted to volunteer your time diagnosing this, please ignore.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided.
