[R-pkg-team] Bug#953778: r-cran-ps: autopkgtest regression: there is no package called 'tibble'

[Paul Gevers]

Source: r-cran-ps
Version: 1.3.2-1
X-Debbugs-CC: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Severity: serious
User: debian-ci at lists.debian.org
Usertags: regression

Dear maintainers,

With a recent upload of r-cran-ps the autopkgtest of r-cran-ps fails in
testing when that autopkgtest is run with the binary packages of
r-cran-ps from unstable. It passes when run with only packages from
testing. In tabular form:
                       pass            fail
r-cran-ps              from testing    1.3.2-1
all others             from testing    from testing

I copied some of the output at the bottom of this report. Seems you're
missing a new (test) dependency.

Currently this regression is blocking the migration to testing [1]. Can
you please investigate the situation and fix it?
