The instructions at [Building an R Project - Travis CI](https://docs.travis-ci.com/user/languages/r/) how to report a bug still link to [Sign in to GitHub · GitHub](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/new?labels=community:r) instead of to this community forum.

> Travis CI support for R is contributed by the community and may be removed or altered at any time. If you run into any problems, please report them in the [Travis CI issue tracker](https://github.com/travis-ci/travis-ci/issues/new?labels=community:r) and cc [@jeroen](https://github.com/jeroen) and [@jimhester](https://github.com/jimhester).

Yes, I could, but I don’t know what the accepted report methodology is now. For instance, should one still " cc [@jeroen](https://github.com/jeroen) and [@jimhester](https://github.com/jimhester)" ?

If a part of a text is evidently outdated, other parts might be outdated even if there is no visible evidence for it. _Ex falso quodlibet._

[The build log also refers to those two](https://travis-ci.org/andreasabel/agda-scope/jobs/575524258#L143-L145) so that part is true.

@BanzaiMan do we need the duplication? I reckon the doc can be the authoritative place (with the build message referring to it) because it’s easier to look up and refer to.
