Clash between 'Cairo' and 'EBImage' packages on Windows
Hi,
on Windows XP Pro with R version 2.7.1 Patched (2008-06-27 r46012) the

Loading EBImage before Cairo cause the following to happen:

texi2dvi and buildVignettes() on Windows
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))

running texi2dvi without running bibtex
Dear all,
I was hoping someone may know a way of running texi2dvi while ignoring
bibtex errors, or any other work around (such as not running bibtex at
all, if possible).
The context is that I have an R program that does some calculations
and writes a table into various folders, one per country for several
countries. I have a latex file that takes the table as an input, and
this latex file is

texi2dvi: option "clean" also deletes the generated pdf file
Dear expeRts,
below are two examples of using texi2dvi. The problem becomes clear from the
second example: on cleaning, texi2dvi also deletes the generated .pdf file.
Is there a solution?
Cheers,
Marius
## Example 1: texi2dvi cleans fine, without deleting the generated .pdf

texi2dvi / egrep issue shows (a.o.) up in R-alpha
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.
Best,
Tobias

Windows vignettes, shQuote, texi2dvi
I noticed a shQuote fix for Windows in the svn logs.
Just wanted to point out that this will favorably
affect texi2dvi on Windows which previously used
UNIX quoting and so generated an incorrect Windows
command. (Note that texi2dvi is used when creating
vignettes.)
Another problem is that the recommended tex
distribution for Windows, fptex, does not have texi2dvi
in the first place. The

texi2dvi runs but produces no output
I am working on a Windows XP machine with R 2.10.1 and a recent
installation of MiKTeX 2.8. I use LyX (www.lyx.org) to write documents
and have it set up to run Sweave, Stangle, and make the PDF through R
using a batch script and a MakeSweave.R file. This system worked just
fine until I ran some MiKTeX updates yesterday. This is a bit
embarrassing as I helped produce a "How-to" guide to

Problem Sweaving vignettes: MiKTeX's texi2dvi reports errors
Hi,
I am trying to create a Bioconductor package. Everything installs and checks
fine. Now I'm on my last step, which is to create a vignette. I'm trying to
test the Sweave process, to make sure I can build a vignette. I am stuck at
the texi2dvi stage, which fails when I try to process the example
Sweave-test-1.tex file.
I am using Windows binary R distributions, and have the same

texi2dvi error "Sweave" and "exams"
I have installed Sweave as recommended. http://lifeasclay.wordpress.com/tag/sweave/. Placing a test.Rnw file, for instance, in "/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.15/Resources/library/utils/Sweave" generates test.tex files that generate pdf files with LaTeX. To be honest, placing Rnw files seem to make sense. The "exams" package does require not this step. It uses

MiKTeX's withdrawal of texi2dvi.exe
MiKTeX has abruptly removed texi2dvi.exe from its distribution. (MiKTeX
broke its updating process earlier and an attempted update trashed the
updater on my installation so I was forced to make a fresh install of
the current distribution. I do not know if updates remove a currently
installed texi2dvi.exe.)
This has two consequences:

Building manuals are failing now that MikTex 2.9 has removed texi2dvi.exe
According to the MikTex bug reports [1], MikTex 2.9 has removed
texi2dvi.exe last week (on 2015-09-29) as "it was not compatible
(anymore) with the original shell script texi2dvi (GNU Texinfo)." I
