[JustinCally]

Ubuntu actions are failing when building vignettes as a system dependency for stringi cannot be found:

Run rcmdcheck::rcmdcheck(args = '--no-manual', error_on = 'warning', check_dir = 'check')
── R CMD build ─────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────────

solved by installing stringi from source but now sf is an issue:
