@raulcd could this be because of #46516?

[raulcd]

Thanks for the ping @ianmcook . I initially thought it could be related but after I did some investigation it is not the case.
The issue is that the test-debian-12-docs job has been failing for a week approximately (latest error is different from initial one). The error seems to be generating the R documentation:

2025-06-05T01:16:08.4779370Z x Reference metadata not ok.

Could the current failure be related to the following PR as it seems to be complaining about index "one"

• GH-46632: [R][Docs] Add docs for arrow::one #46648

@amoeba any idea

[kou]

#46717 may be related.

[ianmcook]

Looks like this was resolved by #46722. Thanks @kou!
