[Rd] Daily package check and --install=no

R-devel,

There has been some confusion on the MatchIt package mailing list on
the meaning of [--install=no] in the comment column of CRAN's
automated package check.

It's my understanding that, at the very least, a package marked like
this will not have its test cases run each night.  Are there other
checks that are omitted?

How, if at all, are such install flags related to the parameters one
can pass R CMD check, such as --no-install, --no-test, etc.?

Thanks,

Jeff
