similar to: Problem in vignette packaging of Sweave in utils package

I am having trouble converting the output from Sweave into a valid PDF file. I have created a simple .Rnw file which will become a full vignette at some point, but during the intermediate testing, I got errors from texi2dvi. This is what I have done. 0) Using a Windows Xp system 1) Created a file called GeneSpring.Rnw 2) Convert this to Tex using Sweave("GeneSpring.Rnw") from within R

I'm finalizing development of a package that will include a vignette. Without the vignette, the package builds fine with no warnings and is ready for distribution. Now, I am following the directions for developing vignettes "Sweave, Part II: Package Vignettes" by Friedrich Leisch. I am using a windows XP machine (other session info below). Here is what I have done. 1) I add the

R CMD check gives an error when a vignette entry %\VignetteDepends{} has any extra space at the end. Maybe this is by design, but I found it confusing. Changing the function "vignetteMetaRE" in tools package could solve the problem. I.e. vignetteMetaRE <- function(tag) paste("[[:space:]]*%+[[:space:]]*\\\\Vignette", tag,"\\{([^}]*)\\}", sep = "")

I recently wrote a vignette, with the following at the top of the .Rnw file: %%\VignetteIndexEntry{How to use look up tables for h() functions} %%\VignetteDepends{sjedmin, spatstat} Using vExplorer() on this function, I got an error from this part of getVigInfo(): lines <- grep("^%[[:space:]]*\\\\Vignette", file) if (length(lines) == 0) stop("File ", vig,

Dear List, I recently stumbled over the possibility and need to specifiy % \VignetteDepends{} in my vignettes. I did not know about this, and I notice that it is not mentioned in the R-extensions manual section "Writing package vignettes". I have some questions with regards to that: - would it be possible to include into the section "Writing package vignettes" some hint

Dear R developers, I observed that the html help page index entry "Read overview or browse directory" for package vignettes is missing in recent R-devel. This happened on two independent computers (WinXP Prof. SP3, German) with R-devel compiled from sources svn rev. 48125 resp. 48128 It's the same for my own and also for more prominent packages as well (e.g. grid). The

I?m preparing a package (fastR) for submission to CRAN, but the vignette index keeps going AWOL, or at least R CMD check ?as-cran thinks so. I?ve tried several things and gave myself the weekend to think of other things, but I can?t figure it out. Perhaps someone on the list can lend a hand. Here?s one example situation, where I build the index.html file myself and put it in inst/doc/index.html

Could someone please point me to where information about the two entries %\VignetteDepends{} and %\VignettePackage{} are documented? I'm getting an error with %\VignetteDepends{} with my package name in braces. Looking at the vignettes on my system, some include the package name and some don't. Should it be there? If so, why might I be getting an error doing so? $ R CMD check SuperCurve

Dear R folks, One of the fantastic new tools in R is `Sweave'. I have tested it so much that I know it works and produces fine documentation, and with (GNU) Emacs/ESS it is nice to work with, too. I started to have a look at including some Swoven (is that a strong verb?) documentation with my R package, but it seems that there is no model to copy among those packages that I have installed in

Hi, this is tangentially related to the recent discussion on vignettes. vignette() currently produces a listing of available vignettes, but these are not clickable. Since R has a browseURL() function, it seems natural to have a version that produces HTML with clickable links. Here's an attempt at that: source("http://dsarkar.fhcrc.org/R/vignette-browser.R") browseVignettes()

Hi, I have a package for which I'm writing a vignette. The vignette looks fine as indicated by R CMD check. However after installing the package (in my personal R library location) doing vignette('rcdk') says Warning message: vignette 'rcdk' *not* found But I can see the PDF file located under rcdk/doc in the R library directory. The header of the Rnw file is %

Hi, I'm trying to get a package to pass through "R CMD check --as-cran" and have run into a problem that gives me no idea where to look to fix it. I'm running R version 15.1 on a Windows 7 64-bit machine, with the current set of Rtools. An attempt to check the package dies at the following step: * checking running R code from vignettes ... 'SIBER.Rnw'

As a user, I am always annoyed beyond measure that Sweave vignettes precede the code by a command line prompt. It makes running examples by simple copying of the commands from the vignette to the console a pain. I know the idea is that it is clear what is the command, and what is the output, but I'd rather precede the output with some kind of marking. Is there any other solution possible /

Hello! I have just discovered a possible bug or lack of my knowledge. The last option is not so uncommon and I decided to ask here before flooding the bugs repository. Say I have a package test with vignette. Moving package directory to some other name, say test2, fails R CMD check with $ R CMD check test2 * checking for working latex ... OK * using log directory

Hi, I have a problem when checking the package 'probdistr' (on probability distributions). I got this warning * checking index information ... WARNING Vignettes with missing or empty \VignetteIndexEntry: [1] "probdistr-chi" "probdistr-contextra" "probdistr-discrete" [4] "probdistr-discrextra" "probdistr-exp"

I have built today's R-devel without problem on a fresh installation of debian testing. However, 'make check' fails.

Dear all, I am struggling with an issue related to static vignettes: they work, but only when present in double in the tarball -- in the folder inst/doc and vignettes; see below for details. Details: I am pre-compiling heavy vignettes thanks to the vignette builder R.rsp. So basically, I have PDF files which I want the package to use as Vignettes. For this, I have the following in my

Dear Duncan, The UTF-8 characters aren't properly rendered in the pdf version of the vignette. $?? ????? ?????? ?????? ????? ?? ?? is rendered as $????? ?????????? ???????????? ????? ?????? ? ???????? ???????? The same problem occurs when I use render("vignette.md", output_format = "mypackage::mystyle"), instead of render("vignette.md", output_format =

Context: R2.15-0 on Ubuntu. 1. I get a WARNING from CMD check for "Package vignette(s) without corresponding PDF: In this case the vignettes directory had both the pdf and Rnw; do I need to move the pdf to inst/doc? I'm reluctant to add the pdf to the svn source on Rforge, per the usual rule that a code management system should not have both a primary source and a object
