On check error with encoding for me

[sckott]

I get on check

• checking R files for syntax errors ... WARNING
  Warning in Sys.setlocale("LC_CTYPE", "en_US.utf8") :
  OS reports request to set locale to "en_US.utf8" cannot be honored

I also get

• checking examples ... WARNING
  checking a package with encoding 'UTF-8' in an ASCII locale

What do you run, Linux/Windows? I wonder if I should change something in my computers or R settings?

Thanks for reporting this, I though UTF-8 is quite portable.

I'm on Linux. I had some Problems with ASCII (eg. the 'ö' in my name).
Therefore I am usually using UTF-8.

The respective files are DESCRIPTION, get_uid, classification(), taxize-package (and their .Rd files).
I will look for a solution tomorrow, since the error is basically on my side. [Which will be converting back to ASCII (and/or 'ö' in ASCII or as 'oe').

Okay. Just fyi, I am on OSX.

This should fix the problem: e25a866.

[eduardszoecs]

fixed? If yes close this, if not: hmm....

Just a second, will check it again.

[sckott]

Yes, this problem is fixed on my end. I don't get that same error on check.
