Hi Maintainer
With R 3.4.0-1, Sweave's exit status seems to be always 1, even when no
apparent error occurred.
e.g.
$ R CMD Sweave vignettes/gslpaper.Rnw
Output file: gslpaper.tex
$ echo $?
1
$ R CMD Sweave no-such-file
Error in (function (file, dir = ".", weave = TRUE, latex = TRUE, tangle
= TRUE, :
file 'no-such-file' not found
Calls: <Anonymous> -> do.call -> <Anonymous>
Execution halted
$ echo $?
1
Previous R versions returned exit status 0 when Sweave was successful.
e.g.
$ R CMD Sweave vignettes/gslpaper.Rnw
Output file: gslpaper.tex
$ echo $?
0
This causes autopkgtests of at least r-cran-gsl, r-cran-shinyjs and
r-cran-v8 to fail since 2017-04-14 [1].
