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 error

Dear all, I am trying to compile and install R from sources on Ubuntu GNU/Linux 64 bit. It usually worked flawlessly for me for more than 4 years (32bit and 64bit on Mandrake/Mandriva, Suse, Debian, Ubuntu). However, I am experiencing some problems now -- not during compiling and installing R itself but with the manuals. Maybe someone can help me with it? I tried to find some information in the

I am running the beta test version of Ubuntu 9.10, x86_64 on a machine and encountered some peculiarities in LaTeX called through R-devel CMD texi2pdf file.tex The tilde character in the input, which should produce a non-breaking space, is now being rendered as a tilde. Does anyone know where I could begin exploring for explanations and/or workarounds?

Hello: Changes in R seem to have broken the sos vignette, and I don't know how to fix it. The build on R-forge, "https://r-forge.r-project.org/R/?group_id=235&log=build_src&pkg=sos&flavor=patched", ends as follows: Error in texi2dvi(file = file, pdf = TRUE, clean = clean, quiet = quiet, : Running 'texi2dvi' on 'sos.tex' failed.

Hello, I am working on a big R project using Eclipse/StatET/Texlipse. I'd like to write a Latex document within that project but DO NOT want to Sweave it. It's pure Latex. Via the external tools configurations I set up 2 different versions to ensure that my latex document is processed correctly. Version 1 (System Call): library(tools) setwd("${container_loc}") file =

Hi, I uncovered a bug in installing R 3.4.0 from source in Linux, following the standard procedure (configure; make; make install). Is this an appropriate place to report this bug? If not, can you please direct me to the appropriate place? The error occurs only when I do "make clean" followed by "make" again; make works the first time. The error is a failure to build

Hi, I am trying to create a Bioconductor package. Everything installs and checks fine. Now I'm on my last step, which is to create a vignette. I'm trying to test the Sweave process, to make sure I can build a vignette. I am stuck at the texi2dvi stage, which fails when I try to process the example Sweave-test-1.tex file. I am using Windows binary R distributions, and have the same

According to the MikTex bug reports [1], MikTex 2.9 has removed texi2dvi.exe last week (on 2015-09-29) as "it was not compatible (anymore) with the original shell script texi2dvi (GNU Texinfo)." I found this out the hard way as I just (unknowingly) updated MikTex this evening, and then, while building R-devel_2015-10-08 on Windows7 64bit using the Rtools 3.3 toolchain (4.9.3 branch), had

I noticed a shQuote fix for Windows in the svn logs. Just wanted to point out that this will favorably affect texi2dvi on Windows which previously used UNIX quoting and so generated an incorrect Windows command. (Note that texi2dvi is used when creating vignettes.) Another problem is that the recommended tex distribution for Windows, fptex, does not have texi2dvi in the first place. The

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 below.

I just installed R-1.7.0 on Darwin 6.6 (a.k.a. MacOS 10.2.6). 'make' and 'make check' run without any problems. 'make info' builds with no complaints, but 'make dvi' and 'make pdf' fail. I get refman.dvi and refman.pdf OK (with some warnings from pdftex that some names are referenced that do not exist), but R-FAQ.{dvi,pdf} fails as shown below. Attempts

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: (example 1) you should 'make docs' now ... make[1]: Entering directory '/home/btyner/R-4.3.3/doc' creating
