R devel - Jul 2012 - Problem in vignette packaging of Sweave in utils package

In ?Sweave, it refers to Sweave User Manual. In the doc folder of
utils package, I see "Sweave.pdf".

However, I can't find it from within R

> vignette("Sweave User Manual")
Warning message:
vignette ?Sweave User Manual? not found

> browseVignettes("utils")
No vignettes found by browseVignettes("utils")

> library(help=utils)
does not refer to any vignettes.

The vignette does not appear in the main page for utils in help.start().

I checked the source code for the Sweave vignette, but I don't see
anything wrong. It has all of the required elements:

%\VignetteIndexEntry{Sweave User Manual}
%\VignettePackage{utils}
%\VignetteDepends{tools}
%\VignetteDepends{datasets}
%\VignetteDepends{stats}

Am I accessing it incorrectly, or is there something wrong in my
install of R-2.15.1?

The vignette name is "Sweave", so you should see it when you say

vignette("Sweave")

but you should also have seen it in

browseVignettes("utils")

and

library(help=utils)

and the page for utils in the HTML help.  So it looks as though 
something is wrong in your install.  I do see it in 2.15.1 patched on 
Windows.

Turns out there was a bug in the code to install from tarballs, so base 
package vignettes weren't fully installed.  I've fixed it; installs from
R-patched or R-devel revisions after 59750 should be okay.
