R help - Jul 2013 - While using R CMD check: LaTex error: File `inconsolata.sty' not found

Hi,
While using R CMD check I get the following Latex error message which occurs
when creating PDF version of manual:
LaTex error:  File `inconsolata.sty' not found
I am using Windows 7 (64-bit) and R 3.0.1.  I have MikTex 2.9.
I see that the incosolata.sty is present under \doc\fonts folder.  How can I
eliminate this problem?

Thanks,
Ravi

I seem to remember that this was described in a posting in the last month ortwo
on r-devel and that  workaround or two were described:

I've just now updated MacTeX 2013.

After the update kpsewhich inconsolata.sty gives:

/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/tex/latex/inconsolata/inconsolata.sty

and  kpsewhich zi4.sty gives

/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/tex/latex/inconsolata/zi4.sty

These are essentially identical.

In the package itself there is no tex/inconsolata.sty
The README of the inconsolata package tells you what you could do with
doc/fonts/inconsolata.sty

See http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/fonts/inconsolata

It appears that the MacTeX update has automatically taken care of the
inconsolata.sty and zi4.sty issue.
