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 ... OK * using log directory `/homef/jonm/R-1.4.0/bin/GLMMGibbs.Rcheck' ... <Installs library, documentation, and then performs various tests, including the example,

I wanted to try out package distrMod, so I did > install.packages('distrMod') > library(distrMod) and played around, saved and quit. Now whenever I start up in this directory, I get distr and lots of other stuff loaded and lots of messages. How do I keep it from automatically loading, other than starting over in another directory? I read ?Startup, but I couldn't suss out

Dear R users and Dear authors of the distr package and sequels I am trying to use the (very nice) package distrMod as I want to implement maximum likelihood (ML) fit of some univariate data for which I have derived a theoretical continuous density (pdf). As it is a parametric density, I guess that I should implement myself a new distribution of class AbscontDistributions (as stated in the pdf

On a CentOS 7 machine, I am at a loss with respect to an inability to run a full R CMD check as anything involving tex files ends in tears. We followed the README at CRAN and installed a large number of tex-live packages on this machine. But when a manual is created, we end up with what follows below. Here, I chopped some of the error messages, the key seems to be 'Insufficient extension

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, 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

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

Hi all, I've got a basic question regarding package documentation and rd.sty. I wrote my first own package, and now I would like to place the documentation into the appendix of another LaTex document. Seemingly I cannot simply \usepackage{Rd}, as this will modify the page-settings of my document. Is there a minimum style file which will just define the environments and commands needed for

It seems that many package authors do not proofread the help installed with their packages. The Rd converter is not a parser, and it will silently produce incorrect results on incorrect input (and some correct input). Here are a few hints about some common errors: 1) When you run R CMD check you get a PDF manual at <pkg>.Rcheck/<pkg>-manual.pdf. Read through it looking for

After configure, make and make check on a linux Suse 7.3 box, I run make dvi and make info with no problems but get a lot of garbage to my screen during make pdf. Is this normal? Is there a bug in this part of the installation? This is part of what I get on the screen: humboldt:/usr/local/R-patched # make pdf make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/R-patched/doc' make[2]: Entering

Hi all I am trying to build an R package, which I have successfully done many times before, but have an error I cannot trace. I hope someone can help me.

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

Hello, I'm trying to make a poster in Latex using the beamer poster macro (http://www-i6.informatik.rwth-aachen.de/~dreuw/latexbeamerposter.php), and use Sweave to add in R output. This works fine for adding graphics and tables, but if I want to put code in, the file fails to build in Latex. My Rnw file looks like \documentclass[final,hyperref={pdfpagelabels=false}]{beamer}

Hi I am looking for an implementation (or alternative to) Mallow's distance or the Earth Mover's distance to compare distributions or unnormalized distributions (signatures). Is there an implementation in R or can somebody recommend an alternative? Thanks Rainer -- Rainer M. Krug, PhD (Conservation Ecology, SUN), MSc (Conservation Biology, UCT), Dipl. Phys.

The new version 2.2 of our distr-family of packages has now been available on CRAN for several days. As there were many changes we will only sketch the most important ones here. For more details see the corresponding NEWS files (e.g. news(package = "distr") or using function NEWS from package startupmsg i.e. NEWS("distr")). First of all a new package distrEllipse was added

Hi, All: I encountered problems running "pdflatex wrapper.tex", as suggested on "www.r-project.org" -> Newsletter -> (near the bottom of the page). After 220 lines of seemingly successful processing, I got an error copied below. I hit <enter> a few times, and the "pdflatex" finished, apparently successfully. Comments? Thanks,
