Hi all, I realize that this is not an R question, but in attempting to build a new version of a package, I have encountered the error:
Error in texi2dvi(file = file, pdf = TRUE, clean = clean, quiet = quiet, : pdflatex is not available As I could not find any way to install pdflatex (it didn't appear on a yum search), I tried a method that claimed to install pdflatex via a package named "texlive". Almost 300 packages later and minus over 300 Mb of disk space, I then got the error: ! LaTeX Error: File `zi4.sty' not found. This seems to be an updated version of the "inconsolata.sty" error that used to torment me (and after reading a lot of messages about this, many other people as well), so I found the file "zi4.sty" and copied it into what I thought was the appropriate directory. It seems to be, as I now get the error: ! LaTeX Error: File `upquote.sty' not found. At this point, I wonder if someone would be kind enough to inform me whether this is a potentially infinite task of finding ".sty" files, in which case I will live without them, or if there is an easier method of satisfying the apparently immense appetite of LaTeX? Thanks.
