Hi, This is a follow-up to the problem reported here: https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2010-September/058460.html After I updated R-2.12 to 2010-09-13 r52905 on the Bioc build system, some of the packages that have a Makefile in <pkg>/inst/doc still don't build on Windows. For example, 'R\bin\R.exe CMD build adSplit' gives: * checking for file

Hi, The following command: R CMD Rd2pdf --no-preview --output=./tmp.pdf --title=test genefu-package.Rd run against this file: https://hedgehog.fhcrc.org/bioconductor/trunk/madman/Rpacks/genefu/man/genefu-package.Rd (username: readonly; password: readonly) produces a very verbose error (see below) with R version 2.15.0 alpha (2012-03-07 r58622). The .Rd file has these lines in it: Version: \tab

I construct a pdf package manual in Windows 7 using R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf --no-preview [packagename] Page numbers are listed correctly under 'R topics documented' at the front, but incorrectly (offset by -2 pages) in the Index at the back. Following the hyperlinked page numbers in the Index takes you to the wrong page. 2 pages happens to be the length of the package overview man page inserted

I am currently writing a (private) package in which I produce pdf files from within R using LaTeX. To do so I mainly copied some lines from the buildVignettes() function in the tools package. This uses the texi2dvi which is included in R's bin directory: system(paste(file.path(R.home(), "bin", "texi2dvi"), "--quiet --pdf", bft)) This runs

R CMD build fails with recent R-devel because it is looking for texi2dvi in /usr/local/bin, but on this system, MacTex has installed it in /usr/bin. $ R CMD build IRanges * checking for file 'IRanges/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * preparing 'IRanges': * checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK * cleaning src * installing the package to build vignettes * creating vignettes ... ERROR

In the process of updating R to R 2.7 alpha or R 2.7 beta for the BioConductor 2.2 builds on Windows, I have hit a snag because the BioC build system has long path names (e.g. D:\biocbld\bbs-2.2-bioc\R) and these path names are not resolving properly by MiKTeX 2.7 during vignette construction. Take, for example, the attached vignette from Biobase, Bioconductor.Rnw. I have built R from source

Hello, can anyone explain the following error I get when trying to use the CHECK command to check a new version of my pakcage under 1.4.0? ****** ./R CMD check ~/GLMMGibbs.0.5.1/GLMMGibbs * checking for working latex ...

Hello everybody I'm am trying to build a pdf out of the Rd files that i wrote for a package, so that I can attach it to my thesis. if i Run Rd2pdf (or Rd2dvi) I get this error massage: Hmm ... looks like a package Converting Rd files to LaTeX . Creating pdf output from LaTeX ... Error in texi2dvi("Rd2.tex", pdf = (out_ext == "pdf"), quiet = FALSE, : Running

I want to include a vignette with a package I wrote. I did follow the "Writting R extentions" document step by step, but went I run "Rcmd build", an error occurs. It goes like this: " * creating vignettes ... ERROR . . . . :7: Emergency stop L7L ==> Fatal error occurred, no output PDF file produced!texify: pdflatex failed for some reason <see log file>.

Dear lists: I am somewhat puzzled by the use of texi2dvi/pdflatex in R2.7.0. When building EBImage (bioconductor) with 2.7.0 I get the same error both in Windows and Linux, which reads the following: ** building package indices ... * DONE (EBImage) * creating vignettes ... ERROR /usr/bin/texi2dvi: pdflatex exited with bad status, quitting. Error in texi2dvi(file = bft, pdf = TRUE, clean =

L.S. I noticed weird tools::texi2dvi behaviour on R-alpha when specifying an absolute path to the .tex file. The same phenomenon also appears to occur on R-2.12.2, so maybe the issue is independent of R. I hope I did not overlook any important information.

Recently, I upgraded MiKTeX to the latest versions, and since then there are problems when I try to build R and/or R packages. I tried to build R 1.9.0 beta and R 1.8.1 patched I am running Windows XP Pro, SP 1 MikTeX version is This is e-TeX, Version 3.141592-2.1 (MiKTeX 2.4) (preloaded format=latex 2004.3.27) fpTeX version is This is e-TeXk, Version 3.141592-2.1 (Web2c 7.5.2) (format=latex

Hi Everybody, I am having a problem with loading Biobase package. I typed 2 lines below at R prompt > source ("http://boconductor.org/biocLite.R") > biocLite (lib="/usr/local/lib/R/library") which attempted to install a bunch of packages with varying degree of success. Out of 29, 13 failed. Biobase is one of them. As a matter of fact, when I looked at logs, most

We are trying to setup a Windows server that will allow any of our users to build a binary R package given a source package. The idea is to have a central R installation and allow users to install packages to their own package library for the purposes of binary package building. It seems, however, that write access to $R_HOME is required as part of the install step even when -l is used to

Hello All R-Gurus: ISSUE: Cannot view R vignettes due in Ubuntu Linux (a debian variant). note: this issue has been posted to this list before with no responses given see https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-help/2007-September/141178.html DETAILS: I am trying to view an R vignette.

Both packages use the save image method of installation. (See annaffy 1.0.3 in BioC CVS.) Depending on how both packages are loaded, the Biobase definitions seem to be getting masked out: >

Hi everyone This is my first post to the list. I had experience installing and using Bioconductor on Linux and Windows systems but I am encountering problems installing Biobase on Solaris running on Sparc. The package compilation works fine, with only a warning warning: implicit declaration of function `__builtin_isnan' the help files are generated but in the end it fails with an error

Hi all, I have this microarray large microarray data set (ALL) from which I would like to subset or extract a set of data based on a factor ($mol.biol). I looked up some example of subsetting in, picked up two commands and tried both but I got error messages as follows > testset <- subset(ALL, ALL$mol.biol %in% c("BCR/ABL","ALL1/AF4")) >> Error in
