Hi
I am still trying to wrap up a package using Rcmd (in windows 2000 professional
with R 1.8.1). I have made some progress - and now at least Rcmd check works - it
still giving me an error message when it creates latex help files though. Thus I get:
c:\rpack Rcmd check test
* checking for working latex ... OK
* using log directory 'C:/rpacks/test.Rcheck'

This typically indicates Rd problems.
Everything is handled smoothly except for creating the test-manual. I
looked at the error log and it told me that this was due to :
! LaTeX Error: File `Rd.sty' not found.
Now I do have Rd.sty in my $HOME\share directory - so i tried to check
But it's the one in R_HOME/share/texmf you want.
the configurations of MikTeX. I even tried adding the share directory to
PATH to see if that helped; it didn't. I am not sure what else I can do
to get MikTeX to recognize Rd.sty in the R directory.
It should be looking in TEXINPUTS, as is the point of the following in the
check script
$ENV{'TEXINPUTS'} =
env_path(file_path($R::Vars::R_HOME, share, texmf),
$ENV{'TEXINPUTS'});
So you could try adding to TEXINPUTS yourself, and you should certainly
check the current setting of the environment variable (unset is fine).
Perhaps someone who uses MikTeX can help or assist -- the recommendation
is fptex, which is also what is on TeXLive.
