Code:

<<preliminaries,echo=FALSE,results=hide>>=
prettyVersion <- packageVersion("someNameHere")
prettyDate <- format(Sys.Date(), "%B %e, %Y")
user <- Sys.getenv("USER")
dir <- getwd()

\date{Built on \Sexpr{prettyDate} using version \Sexpr{prettyVersion}}
\maketitle
Built by '\Sexpr{user}' in directory '\Sexpr{dir}' coming from directory
'\Sexpr{olddir}'.
Comes up with an empty / unset olddir when I do
R CMD build someNameHere; R CMD INSTALL someNameHere_1.2.3.tar.gz
No mas :-/
Your idea about the logfile is fair, but I would *much* prefer to have
something unconditional.
