Problems with R CMD check

Question

I am currently working on an R package in Windows and recently downloaded all my files from R-forge to my local (linux) computer. Strange enough, I get an error when applying the package check, indicating that "lattice" is not installed on my computer. The output of 00check.log is as follows:

==> R CMD build --no-manual pkg

* checking for file ‘pkg/DESCRIPTION’ ... OK
* preparing ‘metamisc’:
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
* checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
* checking for empty or unneeded directories
* looking to see if a ‘data/datalist’ file should be added
* building ‘metamisc_0.1.5.tar.gz’

==> R CMD check --no-manual --as-cran metamisc_0.1.5.tar.gz

See
  ‘/home/arrakis/SpiderOak Hive/9 - PACKAGES/metamisc/metamisc.Rcheck/00check.log’
for details.


Exited with status 1.

The output of 00install.out is:

* installing *source* package ‘metamisc’ ...
** R
** data
** inst
** preparing package for lazy loading
Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘survival’ in loadNamespace(j <- i[[1L]], c(lib.loc, .libPaths()), versionCheck = vI[[j]]):
 there is no package called ‘lattice’
Error : package ‘survival’ could not be loaded
ERROR: lazy loading failed for package ‘metamisc’
* removing ‘/home/arrakis/SpiderOak Hive/9 - PACKAGES/metamisc/metamisc.Rcheck/metamisc’

However, I can load survival and lattice manually, without any problem. These packages are installed in the folder ~/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4, which is also in the library paths.

> .libPaths()
[1] "/home/arrakis/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.4" "/usr/local/lib/R/site-library"                  
[3] "/usr/lib/R/site-library"                         "/usr/lib/R/library"

Also, on my windows computer I dont have any problem to compile and run the package, so Im quite puzzled where this issue is originating from.

Finally, some info on my installation:

Many thanks in advance for your help!!
