R complains about missing R.css file when installing basic packages
Reproduction:
install R from edge.
Try at the command line:
R -e
‘options(repos=“https://cran.rstudio.com”);install.packages(“fortunes”)’
This gives a few warnings related to an incomplete doc system. The warnings go away when R-doc is installed as well.
Possible solutions:
- Make R dependent on R-doc, i.e.:
depends=“$pkgname-mathlib $pkgname-doc”
- Add to R.post-install the following information:
- To avoid warnings when installing R packages, also install R-doc.
