There are no tests to run

Well, there is nothing special with svd. I'd suspect this is something connected with PowerPC and testhat. Does it work if you'd run tests manually like:

library(testthat)
library(svd)

test_package("svd")

?

@asl Thank you for responding. No, testthat works fine on PowerPC: we have over 1000 R packages in Macports by now, a large chunk of those use testthat, I can confirm it works.

> test_package("svd")
No installed testthat tests found for svd

It looks to me there are literally no tests written: https://github.com/asl/svd/tree/master/tests So R check merely runs general checkups, but no testthat tests.

[asl]

There are certainly checks, see https://github.com/asl/svd/tree/master/inst/tests And they certainly do run on any other platforms. E.g:

...
* checking for GNU extensions in Makefiles ... OK
* checking for portable use of $(BLAS_LIBS) and $(LAPACK_LIBS) ... OK
* checking use of PKG_*FLAGS in Makefiles ... OK
* checking compiled code ... OK
* checking examples ... OK
* checking for unstated dependencies in ‘tests’ ... OK
* checking tests ...
  Running ‘test-all.R’
 OK
* checking PDF version of manual ... OK
* DONE

@asl Okay, this is interesting. Any idea why this might be the case? testthat does work on my system.

[asl]

Not yet, but I will try to take a look
