I am working with a RedHat 9 system with gcc 3.2.2, makeinfo 4.3, and
perl 5.8.
I have just downloaded the latest r-patched with rsync and
successfully compiled the code and passed the tests conducted with
'make check'.
After that, 'make dvi' gives the following result:
make dvi

'make pdf' gives:
make pdf
make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/src/R/doc'
make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/src/R/doc/manual'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `-pkg.tex', needed by

'make info' works fine.
Is there something wrong with the makefile? Why the "No rule to make
target `-pkg.tex', needed by `stamp-refman-dvi[or pdf]" messages? Any
idea what the problem is?
