During "check" there is also the package-manual.pdf created.
When I compare my manual to those at the CRAN rep, i looks different:
I seems the other manuals have a kind of "titlepage" and even the
document title is different (package 'xxx' vs. R documentation
of ‘/Users/...’ etc.).

Is that behavior simply a matter of being published at CRAN and mine is just
a local package for myself? Or do I miss a man-page which is responsible for
that first page and the title?


Which R version are you using?


I typically get "package 'xxx'" when running R CMD check but "R documentation of 
‘...’ " when runnign R CMD Rd2pdf on some Rd files with R-release.



Hi, I am using R 2.14.0, so I don't know what is the reason for that behavior...


And nor can we without the reproducible example requested at the foot of 
this and every R-help message.


But one quick point: the way to make a package manual is

R CMD Rd2pdf 

and 'R CMD check' is not intended to be the way to produce that manual, 
merely a way to check that CRAN could produce it.  Most likely there is 
diagnostic information in the R CMD check output, but we aren't being 
shown it
