@robkooper @infotroph clearly I missed a step here as R4.2 fails immediately as it's looking for the Docker container pecan/depends:R4.2 which doesn't exist? How do I bump the building of the pecan/depends container to be able to bump the version used for GH Actions PR testing?

What you're missing is a piece I've been meaning to push all week! I'll open it as a separate PR that will need to be merged and then wait for the container to build before this one can use it.

This looks good and I agree it's time ot give up on 4.0 -- the Rocker image it's built on is just too far out of date now.

4.1 checks are passing at the moment; I'll work on getting 4.2 passing in #3237
