'archive' status/directory seems missing

Open tappek opened this issue 3 years ago • 6 comments

The directory archive is used on the CRAN incoming FTP but not described in the Dashboard for status.

Description from R Journal 01/2018 (https://journal.r-project.org/archive/2018-1/cran.pdf) is: archive reject the package, if the package does not pass the checks cleanly and the problem are not likely to be false positives.

Oh, nice finding! Didn't know that the folders were documented officially.

Cool! Can any of you do a PR?

It seems, archive is now described in the text. However, it is not in the picture (status graph) and does not evaluted in the Dashboard's column folder?

I'll reopen but have no time to investigate right now, sorry.

It is just that it is filtered out on the dashboard: https://github.com/lockedata/cransays/blob/master/vignettes/dashboard.Rmd#L38

Simply commenting it or deleting would make it appear on the dashboard

It seems to be more complicated and I can't investigate right now.

I am actually wondering whether we should show archived package as it's not really the role of cransays (if your package fails incoming check doesn't one get an email? but maybe I'm wrong!)
