Quick things first: have you installed all the build-dependencies? apt
build-dep r-base (maybe with --install-suggests? haven't tried that in
a while) should do that. In particular, the build

To Rd2pdf, yes, mostly bug fixes for some rare usages. Some more changes 
are in the making, also for texi2pdf (but that has not been touched yet).

installation: while running make, unable to run pdflatex on 'NEWS.tex'
A kind member of R-core suggested this is due to a misconfiguration on 
my system, and to post it to the mailing list for troubleshooting.
When trying to build R version 4.3.3, in at least two places during the 
process it gives LaTeX errors of the form:

Error in building pdf manual with Rtools
Dear list,
I am trying to produce a pdf manual using Rtools (version 3.1.0.1936) on Windows 8 (64-bit). I am also aware of the inconsolata issue posted in the forum (https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2013-June/066850.html), and then I have installed the patched version of R-3.0.1. However I still have some errors with the following message:

The builder runs tools::texi2pdf() on the vignettes.  Does that give the 
same error for you?  Do earlier revisions work?

Package keyval Error: noupquote undefined
Hi,
Due to a change in Rd.sty a few days ago
(https://github.com/wch/r-source/commit/620eb9a#diff-3bf3d821c6faae50cd6ec931f6f63296L272),

R-3.6.2 make check fails
I am trying to build the latest version of R (3.6.2) on a CentOS system running 7.7.1908.
I have been able to build previous versions of R up to and including 3.5.3 successfully.  Starting with 3.6.0
the "make check" step fails with errors relating to "pdflatex" being missing.  So, I installed texlive-latex
(and the 100 other rpm dependencies) then tried rebuilding R.

[R] Somewhat obscure bug in R 3.4.0 building from source
Hi Peter, Duncan & Bert,
Thank you kindly for the responses.
Indeed, doc/NEWS.pdf is included in the source distribution, and then
removed upon "make clean".
I thought that it might be useful to report this for your benefit, but on
closer inspection it appears that I'm getting errors that arise due to
incompatibilities in my texlive and texinfo installations. This is the

How to run Bibtex with pdfLatex in StatEt/MikTex on Windows ?
Hello,
I'm running R2.10, Eclipse, StatEt and MikTex 2.8 to create Sweave 
documents, and everything seems to work great, until today...
I was trying to add citations from a Bibtex file, but I just got [?] 
citations.  However, if I open the .tex file that StatEt created in 
MikTex and run the latex+bibtex+pdflatex command, the citations are present.
Does anyone know how to either configure

87668 fails on Windows 10 with "pdflatex not found"
I see there have been a number of tweaks to the document build
recently (87650, 87654, 87658, 97660, 97661, etc.)
I tried building 87668 today on Windows 10 and received the error

testing presence of pdflatex in R CMD check
The nodes of our cluster do not have pdflatex installed. When
running R CMD check there on a package with no errors in documentation,
then R-2.13.0-alpha and R-2.12.2 report a possible error in Rd files,
while R-2.11.1 did not. The platform is 64 bit CentOS.
The output of

texi2dvi instead of pdflatex in R2.7.0? and related bioc 2.2 builds
Dear lists:
I am somewhat puzzled by the use of texi2dvi/pdflatex in R2.7.0. When

Windows and Linux, which reads the following:

Vignette problem
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.
