Dear R developers,
I had some problem when building package: for exemple when building the
package e1071 available from CRAN, I get the following message error:
* checking for file 'e1071/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* preparing 'e1071':
* cleaning src
* running cleanup
* creating vignettes ... ERROR
/usr/lib/R/bin/texi2dvi: pdflatex exited with bad status, quitting.
/usr/lib/R/bin/texi2dvi: see svmdoc.log for errors.
Error in texi2dvi(file = bft, pdf = TRUE, clean = FALSE, quiet = quiet) :
running texi2dvi on svmdoc.tex failed
Execution halted
The system I use is:
R2.0.1 under Debian Linux (testing) with kernel 2.6.9-1-686
The pdflatex version is:
pdfeTeX (Web2C 7.4.5) 3.14159-1.10b-2.1
kpathsea version 3.4.5

I attached the log file svmdoc.log.
I have a quick look on the perl script build and it seem there is a grep
for error.
In the log file there is a line with the following:
file:line:error style messages enabled
it is just the summary of the option used when running pdflatex and then
an error is systematically reported.
If you have any idea where the problem comes from?
Thanks,
Philippe

But my guess is that running LaTeX is what fails (and that the problem is neither in R nor in the Per script).>From looking briefly at svmdoc.Rnw, it has a\usepackage{Sweave} so it expects that Sweave.sty is somewhere in your search path. Is that the case? Furthermore, the R code in vignettes should always run, but compiling the resulting .tex file just has to work at build time. So there are vignettes (at least in my packages) that depend on local sty/bib/bst files not included in the package and thus cannot be (easily) compiled by other people.
