Hi R Gurus! I'm trying to create a test package using the package.skeleton function. I wanted to add some compiled code too. In the src library, I put together a baby subroutine, compiled it and created a test.dll When I use the R cmd build, it works fine. But I get into trouble with the R CMD check section. /home/Desktop/R-2.5.1/bin # ./R CMD check mypkg * checking for working latex ...
