Same problem for me. Package gastempt was accepted before on CRAN - Dieter Menne
You should take this to R-pkg-devel. There is already a report of another recent issue with CRAN's Windows builder. - Roland
I added vcrts to LinkingTo, same error on CRAN build - Dieter Menne
I read the latest messages on mail-archive.com/[email protected] , and it looks like even GrandMasters like JimHesters have similar problems with their Windows build currently. Probably it would be best to wait a few days and retry then. - Dieter Menne
I reported it with a link to this thread on r-package-evel - Dieter Menne
