similar to: Error in tools::build Vignettes (dir = ".")

In a package 'vig' R CMD build vig (or tools::buildVignettes(dir="vig") with $ cat vig/vignettes/vig1.Rnw \documentclass{article} \begin{document} <<>>= x <- 1 @ \end{document} $ cat vig/vignettes/vig2.Rnw \documentclass{article} \begin{document} <<>>= x @ \end{document} produces vig2.pdf where x is defined with value 1 -- the vignettes share a build

Hi, in Section 'Writing package vignettes' of 'Writing R Extensions' it says: "Whenever a Makefile is found, then R CMD build will try to run make after the Sweave runs, so PDF manuals can be created from arbitrary source formats (plain LaTeX files, ...). [...] Note that the make step is executed even if there are no files in Sweave format, [...]". In my package,

Hello, I am writing a package called 'DLM' containing a vignette. The vignette contains a chunck with the function call 'library(DLM)'. This worked fine with 'R CMD check DLM', but when it comes to building the package with 'R CMD build DLM' I get the following error message: * creating vignettes ... ERROR Error: chunk 1 Error in library(DLM) : There is no

To maintain my R site, I'm trying to install html help files only, but also keep track of the version (with DESCRIPTION). I have the following bash script, which works except for 00Index.html. That is not a huge problem because the help files are still searchable, but I'd like to fix it. A long time ago I asked the same question, and Brian Ripley said to use --index as an option to

A new problem has cropped up with compiling vignettes for my package BayesFactor. I'm not sure when it started, but I can tell you it didn't occur on R 2.15.3, and it does on 3.0.0 RC (2013-03-31 r62463) (session info is at the bottom of this message). I have defined methods for which.min and which.max for a class (I've defined both S3 and S4 methods for the class

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>.

I haven't figured it out entirely, but it looks like there are a couple of small glitches with knitr-based vignettes and SweaveParseOptions. I posted the tarball of a package with a knitr vignette with (as far as I can tell) everything properly coded in the DESCRIPTION file (VignetteBuilder: knitr, Suggests: knitr) and the vignette itself (%\VignetteEngine{knitr::knitr}). When Windows

Hello, I'm trying to rebuild a package (using R version 3.3.2 (2016-10-31)) that has not seen any changes since it was last built without problems in previous R versions. It fails during vignette building with: ---<--------------------cut here---------------start------------------->--- $ R CMD build diveMove * checking for file ?diveMove/DESCRIPTION? ... OK * preparing ?diveMove?: *

Dear list, I have been checking my package ('analogue') using R2.13-0-alpha (details of exact svn version appended below) and the R CMD check procedure is generating an error rebuilding a vignette in the package, which raises a NOTE in the check. The log printed to screen during check shows: .... * checking re-building of vignettes ... NOTE Error in re-building vignettes: ... Error in

Dear All, I have been checking the metafor package against R-devel. R CMD check --as-cran metafor yields one note: FOSS licence with BuildVignettes: false Yes, I have 'BuildVignettes: FALSE' in my DESCRIPTION file. I see at http://developer.r-project.org/blosxom.cgi/R-devel/NEWS: Tue, 25 Jun 2013 CHANGES IN R-devel UTILITIES 'R CMD check --as-cran' warns about a false

I have packages where I know CRAN and other test platforms do not have all the resources to build the vignettes, for example, access to databases. Previously I think putting BuildVignettes: false in the DESCRIPTION file resolved this, by preventing CRAN checks from attempting to run the vignette code. (If it was not this, then there was some other magic I don't understand.) Now, when

I am resubmitting this bug report but with additional information. I am running this with windows 10: w64-mingw32 with R Under development (unstable) (2017-12-04 r73829). I build 'httk' from the command prompt using 'R CMD build httk' after installing the required packages. Then when the vignettes are being created, it crashes. Today I installed the latest versions of Rtools,

Hi, On both Unix and Windows there is a mechanism to add variables to the environment when R is started. I noticed that, on Unix, this mechanism is not used when R is started normally at the command line but only when it's started using the 'R CMD' syntax. One problem with this is some lack of consistent cross-platform behaviour. For example: On Linux: $ echo $TEXINPUTS $

I once knew the answer to this, but can't find where I found it. Say I have a vignette that I don't want R to automatically rebuild, perhaps it uses some data I can't share or takes too long to run or whatever. Say it is mypackage/vignettes/charlie.Rnw It can create the pdf from an R session that actually has the data, place that result in inst/doc/charlie.pdf, then run R

Interesting, yesterday I had exactly this problem, but today I solved it (see the R-pkg-devel list) by _installing_ R-devel and > update.packages(checkBuilt = TRUE) I also tried it on Martin's Fedora 26 example below. Worked fine (had to install some packages...) On ubuntu 16.04. G?ran Brostr?m On 2017-12-06 11:29, Martin Maechler wrote: >>>>>> Pearce, Robert

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

[Env: Win Xp / StatET 2.0 / R 2.15.0] In my heplots package I extended the HE-examples.Rnw vignette under inst/doc. The package passes R CMD check on my machine: * using log directory 'C:/eclipse-3.7/heplots.Rcheck' * using R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) * using platform: i386-pc-mingw32 (32-bit) ... * checking sizes of PDF files under 'inst/doc' ...

I'm having a problem rebuilding a package, new to me in R 2.15.0 (Linux) It hits all that contain the line \usepackage[pdftex]{graphics} and leads to the following when running R CMD check on the directory. (I do this often; a final run on the tar.gz file will happen before submission.) Since I float and resize my figures, removing the line is fatal in other ways.
