Delete DESCRIPTION file about bookdown-demo

[yihui]

It is a hack to specify dependencies for Travis. Technically I can replace it with another way, but unfortunately I documented it in the bookdown book, which has been published last year: https://bookdown.org/yihui/bookdown/github.html

If that is too much trouble for you, I'll just delete it and revise the documentation, even though I cannot change the hardcopies of the book.

Sounds like we need to update the behavior in rsconnect, then. I'll see what we can do about that. Thanks.

Moved to rstudio/rsconnect#192

FWIW the logic Packrat uses is here:

https://github.com/rstudio/packrat/blob/master/R/dependencies.R#L474-L494

Can you set the Type: field in the DESCRIPTION file to something not equal to Package? Or does that break existing workflows?

[yihui]

@kevinushey That is a great idea! I'll do it.

It looks like Travis failed, but perhaps for an unrelated reason? https://travis-ci.org/rstudio/bookdown-demo/builds/256202125?utm_source=github_status&utm_medium=notification

[yihui]

Yeah I just fixed it. Specifying Type: Book worked perfectly.

Awesome! 😄
