I am not sure if this is already known. I checked BUGS and found some
references to similar behavior when R_HOME is set?
Here is what I get:
(1) Fresh build of 1.4.1 under Linux/RH-7.2. All tests pass.
> R CMD check ctest
* checking for working latex ... OK
* using log directory `/home/andyj/stat/R-1.4.1/library/ctest.Rcheck'
Installing *source* package `ctest' ...

At this point R hangs.
(2) Just installed 1.4.1 on Win200 using Prof. Ripley single file installer

At this point Rcmd hangs also.
In both cases the problems seems to be that the $R_HOME/library/ctest/R
never gets copied to the ctest.Rcheck/ctest. In the Windows case there is
no man directory in ctest, but an empty one is created in ctest.Rcheck.

Why do *you* need to check ctest? What were you going to do with it if it failed? My surmise is that you are running this in a binary installation, not in the source tree. No one said you could check on installed packages in a binary installation. On Wed, 30 Jan 2002 apjaworski at mmm.com wrote:> I am not sure if this is already known.

I think you are running this in a binary installation: at least on Windows it is not supposed to work except for addon packages or on a source installation. -- Brian D.

Thanks for all who responded to this.
I guess I did nor realize that the check should only be run on the packages
installed from sources.
There was no particular reason for me to check ctest. I used to install R
on my Win machine in the "Program Files" folder. The space in path
seems
to break some Perl scripts, so when I tried to run Rcmd check, it would
complain that it could not find "C:/Program" or something similar. I
installed the newest version in C:/R and was simply trying to see if I
could run Rcmd check.
Thanks again,
Andy

broken?
03:19 PM
I am not sure if this is already known. I checked BUGS and found some
references to similar behavior when R_HOME is set?
Here is what I get:
(1) Fresh build of 1.4.1 under Linux/RH-7.2. All tests pass.

At this point R hangs.
(2) Just installed 1.4.1 on Win200 using Prof. Ripley single file installer

adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION
no R files in this package
installing man source files
At this point Rcmd hangs also.
In both cases the problems seems to be that the $R_HOME/library/ctest/R
never gets copied to the ctest.Rcheck/ctest. In the Windows case there is
no man directory in ctest, but an empty one is created in ctest.Rcheck.

This is relaxed in R-devel, but not the sort of thing done in a patch release. -- Brian D.
