Why are you listing the examples as \donttest?  If it's because they 
will fail on CRAN, wouldn't they fail on a user's system?  Then you 
should fix the examples so they don't fail.


If you marked them that way because they violate some CRAN policy (e.g. 
writing to a user's home directory), then you should fix them.  Those 
policies are there to protect users.


If you marked them that way because they take too long to run, then it 
seems like CRAN shouldn't complain about the run time.  I don't know if 
they do or not.


They do not, CRAN does not run --run-donttest examples regularly, only 
occassionally to see if these work, too. We do not complain about 
--run-donttest runtime unless it takes hours and it is unclear whoi is 
supposed to ever look at the examples then.


Best,

Hi all,

R CMD check --as-cran now runs \donttest examples .


So what is the right way to avoid it, and what is the right way for submission 
to CRAN.

Thanks for your help.

Best regards?
