Make sure this also works for `Remotes:...` in a `DESCRIPTION` file!

Considering the long wait with `sysreqs`, it might be best to make those features optional via `require("sysreqs")`, see https://github.com/r-hub/sysreqs/issues/5

For the o2r reproducibility service, this might add considerable overhead because things are installed despite them being available in the base image.

Since be default we rely on `rocker/r-ver` images, which [use MRAN set to the image build date](https://hub.docker.com/r/rocker/r-ver/~/dockerfile/), this works already then. But a specific MRAN-creation instruction would also be nice!...

The best way for now to select the MRAN mirror is to select the base image manually. What `containerit` _could_ do is to see if MRAN a configured repo in...

No, that is not expected. I'd need to dig in which of the used packages says it requires `make`, and on Windows. Maybe this is a problem with the sysreqs...

@MarkEdmondson1234 Can you run the following command on Mac, please? ```R futile.logger::flog.threshold(futile.logger::DEBUG) containerit:::.find_system_dependencies(c("httpuv"), platform = "linux-x86_64-debian-gcc") ``` Just to be sure: you want the one where `make` is not installed,...

`httpuv` seems to have a system dependency on GNU Make: - https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/httpuv/index.html - https://github.com/r-hub/sysreqsdb/blob/master/sysreqs/gnumake.json

Hihi @leungi - thank you for the suggestion. Sometimes CRAN mirrors can be a bit out of sync, so in your case the package `randomForest` should also be available on...

We can add a file `.lintr` to configure what is checked, see https://github.com/jimhester/lintr#project-configuration
