Noticed while working on #2530 that we have some packages listed as Suggests dependencies for the R package which do not show up anywhere in the examples, tests, or package code (as far as I can tell). We can remove:

  • Ckmeans.1d.dp
  • DiagrammeR
  • igraph
  • stringi
  • vcd

I think we should remove these suggested dependencies to reduce the cost of building this library. In some cases R will install Suggests of all packages recursively (e.g. with devtools::install()). Also when using R CMD check, you will get an error if any Suggests dependencies are not found, unless you explicitly express it with an environment variable.
