-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Dear R-Sig-Mac,
Regarding Ji-Ping's problem I experienced a similar issue after having upgraded to 2.9.0 on my Mac. The checking of the PDF manual causes warnings and the following check of PDF version without index causes an error. $ tail -n 4 00check.log * checking PDF version of manual ... WARNING LaTeX errors when creating PDF version. This typically indicates Rd problems. * checking PDF version of manual without index ... ERROR The interesting part is that when uploading the <package>.tar.gz file to Uwe Ligges win-builder website, the package compiles without warnings or errors on Windows. Furthermore, the document compiles without any errors when manually compiling the resulting <package>-manual.pdf in the ..Rcheck folder with pdflatex. However, when trying to generate the manual with: $ R CMD Rd2dvi --pdf . Hmm ... looks like a package Converting Rd files to LaTeX ... <snip> Creating pdf output from LaTeX ... /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/Rd2dvi: line 228: /usr/texbin/pdflatex: No such file or directory Error in running pdflatex command ('/usr/texbin/pdflatex') It appears as if the new 2.9.0 searches for pdflatex in /usr/texbin/pdflatex however, my pdflatex is located in e.g. $ which pdflatex /usr/local/teTeX/bin/i386-apple-darwin-current/pdflatex When setting up a symlink to /usr/texbin R CMD check worked fine. So the problem appears to have to do with R looking for pdflatex in the "wrong" place? Best regards, Michael P.S.
