We have received an email in Ubuntu alerting us that something strange was
going on during the r-base 2.7.1 rc build (see [1]).
It seems that there is an error during the convertion of R-FAQ.texi to pdf.
The following excerpt, taken from [2], shows the problem:
/bin/sh: line 0: test: too many arguments
TEXINPUTS=".:$TEXINPUTS" /usr/bin/texi2dvi --texinfo="@set
UseExternalXrefs " --pdf R-FAQ.texi
/usr/bin/texi2dvi: Running
pdfetex --file-line-error
'/build/buildd/r-base-2.7.1~20080621/doc/manual/R-FAQ.t2d/pdf/xtr/R-FAQ.texi'
...
This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
file:line:error style messages enabled.
