I've looked at this and there are a lot of breaking changes and I don't think I can fix them right away, so I'd like to postpone this.

Do you want to open a draft PR for this?

Do you want to open a draft PR for this?

Nope. I have nothing to share as I have modified almost nothing.

@CGMossa Any advice for this?
The current edge version seems to contain a number of breaking changes, but there seems to be little guidance on how to migrate to them.

Yes! There are a lot of breaking changes, but they should be easy to update.

You can start on it, and if anything seems odd, you can ping me again, and I'll have a look or respond immediately.

I've basically aimed to remove all the weird options, and improve default behavior.. Very little has simply disappeared from extendr.

I read https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-package-devel/2024q2/010931.html.

If you have not received a PR from us and have a failing package check on CRAN, please reply here with a link to your repo and we will give it a look!

@JosiahParry Sorry but could you please take a look at this repository? Due to extendr, I don't think we have been able to pass CI for a while.
The error I saw the last time I tried to update extendr did not make sense and could not be resolved by me.

Sorry! been busy going to take a look :)

Is there a doc on building r-polars? It appears to require some CMake magic that is incompatible with my machine.

Also some info here: https://github.com/pola-rs/r-polars/blob/main/DEVELOPMENT.md

@JosiahParry Thanks for taking a look at this. Maybe I've made you do it twice. I was mistaken in thinking that you guys were keeping in touch. I am sorry.
