Q: Is knitcitations actually using knitr?
Closed this issue · 2 comments
As I was curious to how this package worked, I got to wonder how 'knitr' is used, since it is listed under 'Depends' and hence being a required package. Except for the vignettes, is 'knitcitations' actually using any functionality of 'knitr', or is it their just for being convenient? When I move it to Suggests: and remove its imports from NAMESPACE everything still works, i.e. 'R CMD check' does not complain.
Correct. also, you'll see knitr is only in suggests on the current (v1)
branch
