Dear List, After having installed R 2.6.0/Windows 2000, my trusted command script to build and install my package fails with an error message I do not understand. I have installed a fresh copy of Rtools, and made sure that these are the first on the path. For testing, I am using a package version from an older backup where I am sure that everything else was ok.
PATH=c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\MinGW\bin;c:\Rtools\perl\bin..... The error message is: make: *** ./help: No such file or directory. Stop. What is the full path of the missing directory? When I create an empty .help directory, there is another warning that this was not supposed to be there? Any help? Dieter %>rcmd build Dmisc * checking for file 'Dmisc/DESCRIPTION' ...
