No idea. OSKB (supported by the COS) seems still to be in the make. Let's keep watching whether there will be a chance to contribute in near future.

A similar thing happens if I add a dependency on an external script, which does not exist.

Some more thoughts on this. In my recent repro project, I added a line like this > To reproduce the analysis, run: > > ``` > make docker > make...

Great idea. It should be possible to setup github actions that runs this consistency check whenever you commit changes to github. I am sure that @aaronpeikert knows how to do...

Correct. I don't mind which packages will have the functionality. According to the `repro`-logic, it could be something like an R function `use_travis_for_worcs_consistency_check()` or similar, which would setup a travis...

Alright, then let's not treat this as a bug. I like the approach that we outsource this responsibility. Still, how do we best help people to proceed from this point...

I agree - consistency across both approaches is important. - Literate programming is probably rather known only to people familiar with computer science. So, I really like _dynamic document generation_...

In the context of worcs, we still use the term "dependency management" while we refer solely to the management of packages but not to dependencies between multiple scripts or external...

@aaronpeikert, I wonder whether we can reproduce this behavior in a container... but I suspect that this is a unique combination of R on macOS and the set of packages...
