similar to: R CMD texi2pdf

Just thought I would mention that the issue below (and in https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-devel/2013-April/066318.html) is still not resolved. It hasn't been a big problem, but it potentially could be, if a critical package were to have this error on release day, then all its dependencies would fail to build, which would probably require us to postpone our release. See the complete thread

Hi, Every day a few Bioconductor packages (different ones each day) fail to build, on Windows only, with an error like this: D:\biocbld\bbs-2.13-bioc\meat>D:\biocbld\bbs-2.13-bioc\R\bin\R.exe CMD build --keep-empty-dirs --no-resave-data OrganismDbi [...] Error in find_vignette_product(name, by = "texi2pdf", engine = engine) : Failed to locate the 'texi2pdf' output file (by

G'day all, In Chapter 1.4 (Writing package vignettes) the Writing R Extensions manual states: By default @code{R CMD build} will run @code{Sweave} on all Sweave vignette source files in @file{vignettes}. If @file{Makefile} is found in the vignette source directory, then @code{R CMD build} will try to run @command{make} after the @code{Sweave} runs, otherwise @code{texi2pdf} is run on

Dear all, To create a *.pdf file from a *.Rnw file I do: olddir <- getwd(); setwd(outdir); tryCatch({Sweave("QAReport.Rnw"); tools::texi2pdf("QAReport.tex", clean=TRUE) }, finally = setwd(olddir) ); This works fine, however 'clean=TRUE' does only work when: outdir <-

Hello, I'm seeing three different vignette-related errors with recent versions of R-3.0.0 alpha. First, with the package BitSeq (http://bioconductor.org/packages/2.12/bioc/html/BitSeq.html), I get the following when trying to build the package: Error: processing vignette ?BitSeq.Rnw' failed with diagnostics: Failed to locate the ?weave? output file (by engine ?utils::Sweave?) for

Hello R-developers! I am creating a package (using devtools and RStudio) and I would like to split my vignette into multiple Rnw-files. As an example I tried the code from: https://support.rstudio.com/hc/en-us/articles/200486298 (--> Working with multiple Rnw files) The Rnw-files work fine with "Complie pdf" in RStudio as well as with Sweave("Master.Rnw"). But, if I try

Hello: Changes in R seem to have broken the sos vignette, and I don't know how to fix it.

This is my first post requesting help to this mailing list. I am new to R. My apologies for any breach in posting etiquette. I am new to this language and just learning my way around. I am attempting to run some sample code and and am confused by the error message: Loading required package: rrcov Error in fitNorm2(fdat[, "FSC-H"], fdat[, "SSC-H"], scalefac = ScaleFactor) :

R CMD build fails with recent R-devel because it is looking for texi2dvi in /usr/local/bin, but on this system, MacTex has installed it in /usr/bin. $ R CMD build IRanges * checking for file 'IRanges/DESCRIPTION' ... OK * preparing 'IRanges': * checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK * cleaning src * installing the package to build vignettes * creating vignettes ... ERROR

I'm having trouble with R CMD check of my quantreg package.

Sorry. This, and the description in the ?Writing R Extensions? manual, leaves me completely mystified. Is it that I have to remove the PDFs that are created when I run ?R CMD build?, and somehow ensure that they are rebuilt when the package is installed? Do I need a Makefile?

I checked after this question popped up on Stackoverflow: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/44785961/compile-pdf-in-rstudio-works-but-knit2pdf-does-not-work-in-r-or-rstudio On Windows, texi2pdf looks for the texify.exe of Miktex, but looks in a very wrong place: > Sys.which("texify") texify

Hi, Why isn't 'R CMD check --force-multiarch' installing the package for all the architectures that are going to be checked? For some packages, it only installs for the default arch ('i386'). Then testing the package for 'x64' fails. For example, Output of R CMD check --force-multiarch fabia_1.5.0.tar.gz: ----------------------------------------------------------- *

The byte pixies have rolled up R-2.14.0.tar.gz (codename "Great Pumpkin") at 9:00 this morning. This is a development release with several new features; see the list below for details. You can get it from http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.14.0.tar.gz or wait for it to be mirrored at a CRAN site nearer to you. Binaries for various platforms will appear in due course. For
