stubthat removed from CRAN

It appears that stubthat was removed from CRAN on 2022-04-17 due to not passing CHECK results in linux and windows.

I maintain a package that relies on stubthat, and so unfortunately my package was delisted as well.

Do the stubthat maintainers have any desire to address the check test failure and get the package relisted?

Hey, its been a while since I used R on a day-to-day basis. Don't have the required capacity to maintain this project anymore. Lemme know in case if you are interested in taking over the project.

Understood. It's unfortunate that this is due to a breaking change in mockr (https://github.com/krlmlr/mockr/issues/15). But it appears that this comes down to at minimum a one-line change in a unit test. FWIW, see the linked PR (Although for safety I updated all of the calls to with_mock in that unit test.)

Merged your PR, will try to submit to CRAN soon.
