R CMD check: Sys.getenv("R_GSCMD") cannot contain full pathname (contrary to docs)
...;gswin32c.exe" and asserting that it is the PATH
(this is on Windows), it works.
TROUBLESHOOTING:
In the local function check_doc_size() of tools:::.check_packages()
[cf. http://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/src/library/tools/R/check.R],
the Ghostscript executable is retrieved as:
gs_cmd <- find_gs_cmd(Sys.getenv("R_GSCMD", ""))
and if nzchar(gs_cmd) is FALSE, then the 'R CMD check' NOTE appears.
Inspecting tools:::find_gs_cmd, this corresponds to
gs_cmd <- Sys.which(Sys.getenv("R_GSCMD", ""))

'gswin64c.exe'. If "", the function will try to find a platform-specific
path to GhostScript.
The first part seems not to work as described. If gs_cmd is given, this
is passed to find_gs_cmd. This function will then call:
Sys.which(gs_cmd)
which rather takes the name of the executable as input. I guess either
the documentation should be changed to refer to the name of the
GhostScript executable, or the function should be changed to use the
given path.
Best wishes,
