r_check_revdep not working

[Jeroen Ooms]

Setting r_check_revdep: true for any package results in:

$ export RCHECK_DIR=$(Rscript -e 'cat(paste0(devtools::as.package(".")$package, ".Rcheck"))')
0.01s$ grep -q -R "WARNING" "${RCHECK_DIR}/00check.log"; RETVAL=$?
Checking reverse dependencies
0.18s$ Rscript -e 'library("devtools"); res <- revdep_check(); if (length(res) > 0) {  revdep_check_summary(res);  revdep_check_save_logs(res);  q(status = 1, save = "no"); }'

@hadley does this sound at all familiar? (something in devtools is bailing.) i'll dig if not.

I'm getting the same error locally

> revdep_check("curl")
Error: Can't find directory curl
