Hi All,
I am working on a package that interacts with GNU Octave session from R, and I am planning to put it on CRAN later. For it to work as I want, I need subprocess, however, subprocess has been archived as of "2020-01-31" link. I found and fixed the bug that made subprocess fail the CRAN checks, at least I think I did 
Now the question is, can I include a package inside another package for example in inst/?
- I tried to use
processx instead but it does not work the same way, i.e. I cannot create an octave session that stores objects.
- I have thought of
drat and Additional_repositories in DESCRIPTION but this is mostly for data rather than the whole functionality of the package.
Thanks
