I'm not sure why end users would be using R-devel rather than R-alpha
at this point, but I have already changed R-devel to allow Matrix to
get updated before it fails.
Warning: R-devel tends to be particularly unstable during the period
when we are in alpha/beta/RC phases.

Dear R-Devel,
I've just tried to compile the fresh R-devel and found that the
install of package Matrix failed:
---------------------------------------------
** help
*** installing help indices
** building package indices ...
Error in require(Matrix, save = FALSE) :
unused argument(s) (save = FALSE)
ERROR: installing package indices failed
---------------------------------------------
Have you got the Matrix package from the appropriate 2.12/recommended
repository or installed via
make rsync-recommended
make recommended
Are those the commands that should now be used? My script is
essentially doing:
svn up
tools/rsync-recommended
make
make check FORCE=FORCE
Running the script now, I experience the same problem as Thomas. But I
note that Thomas did not state exactly what he is compiling. My 'svn
up' updates the version checked out from:
https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk
which I think of as R-devel.
Now after the svn up the file VERSION in the source directory says:
2.13.0 Under development (unstable)
The SVN-REVISION file in my build directory says:
Revision: 52938
Last Changed Date: 2010-09-17
And I have Matrix_0.999375-44.tar.gz in src/library/Recommended of my
source directory.
As you refer to 2.12/recommended, you and Thomas might talk about
different versions when talking about R-devel.
Cheers,
Berwin
