Dear All,
I recently got a laptop upgrade, and had to re-install the tools I used
for building R packages on Windows (XP SP2). I'm running into a strange
problem that I can't resolve. Can anyone shed on light? This is with
R-2.7.2 patched 2008-09-20 r46576, Rtools.zip downloaded a couple of
weeks ago
I haven't updated Rtools.zip in a long time. You should use the Rtools
installer nowadays. (Where did you get Rtools.zip from? Do we still
have documents pointing there?) It may be that Rools.zip contains some
obsolete tools.

, and MikTeX 2.7. The output below was from a cygwin shell
(PATH modified apropriately), but it's identical to what I get under
Windows command prompt. I've also tried adding the -l flag to install
in another directory that I'm sure is writable, but same problem.
