hadley/test_that — Issue #35: Add comma between packages in depends section of DESCRIPTION file
Author: garrettgman

install_github("test_that")
... stuff happens then....
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... ERROR
Malformed Depends or Suggests or Imports or Enhances field.
Offending entries:
R (>= 2.12.0)
methods
Entries must be names of packages optionally followed by '<=' or '>=',
white space, and a valid version number in parentheses.

See the information on DESCRIPTION files in section 'Creating R
packages' of the 'Writing R Extensions' manual.

Error: Command failed (1)
In addition: Warning message:
In getDependencies(pkgs, dependencies, available, lib) : package ‘R
methods’ is not available (for R version 2.14.1)

Could this be a result of the fix to issue #32? lubridate seems to load when I have

Depends:
methods,
R (>= 2.10)

in the DESCRIPTION file with methods first and then a comma

install_github("lubridate", branch = "S4version")

which is interesting in itself because it doesn't pass all of the tests yet...
