2 suggestions.

First, On your own workstation, run the cmd check like so

R CMD check --as-cran package.tar.gz

That will give you results more like CRAN or Rforge.

Second, how did your pdf get into the folder "fig"?  It makes me
suspect you are using some forbidden Sweave settings.

Oh, Third, here's a suggestion.  Build your own vignette, copy from
vignettes to inst/doc, and then in the DESCRIPTION file include the
option to ask the R system not to rebuild your vignette.

BuildVignettes: false

I think you will see this discussed/debated in R-devel and the
situation is somewhat fluid.
