Error in loadNamespace("DT") : there is no package called ‘DT’

covr::report() gives me:

Error in loadNamespace("DT") : there is no package called ‘DT’

should not the package DT be moved from the Suggests to the Imports section?

covr version is 3.2.1.

No, it is in suggests by design, you simply need to install DT on your system.

Thank you for your quick reply.

Would you mind explaining what you mean by it is in suggest by design?

previously shiny, and now DT is purposefully only in Suggests, because it is needed only when running report(), we don't want to install it when people are using covr on travis.

hey @jimhester,

thank you for the explanation!
