  • This package has been archived on 22 May 2021 because of errors in the dplyr package, causing the skimr package to fail: https://github.com/tidyverse/dplyr/issues/5881. This AMR package contains a fix around this error. Perhaps an idea for future development of CRAN to send an automated email to a maintainer with a warning that a package will be archived in due time?

  • This package continuously has a tarball size of over 7 MB and an installation size of over 5 MB, which will return a NOTE on R CMD CHECK. This has been the case in the last releases as well. The package size is needed to offer users reference data for the complete taxonomy of microorganisms - one of the most important features of this package. This was written and explained in a manuscript that was accepted for publication in the Journal of Statistical Software earlier this year. We will add the paper as a vignette after publication in a next version. All data sets were compressed using compression = "xz" to make them as small as possible.
