Hi, I want to have a "vignette" in one of my R packages. Hence, I added an Sweave file into the /inst/doc subdirectory of this package. Unfortunately, 'R CMD check' gives a warning:
========================================== [...] * checking tests ... OK * checking package vignettes in 'inst/doc' ... WARNING --- führe texi2dvi auf Vignetten aus * creating sampleSelection-manual.tex ... OK * checking sampleSelection-manual.tex using pdflatex ... OK WARNING: There was 1 warning, see /home/suapm095/Documents/Econometrics/R/micEcon/micEcon/sampleSelection.Rcheck/00check.log for details ========================================== Since the line below "WARNING" is in German, I ran 'LC_ALL="C" R CMD check' to get an English message (which I could use in a Google search). However, the warning does NOT occur if I run 'R CMD check' in the 'C' locale. I tried a lot of different things and I figured out that 'führe texi2dvi auf Vignetten aus' is the translation of 'running texi2dvi on vignettes', but I did not find the reason for the warning message that occurs if 'R CMD check' is run in the German locale. If I run Sweave and texi2dvi by hand with both locales, the only possibly relevant difference I noticed is that Sweave uses straight single quotation marks in the 'C' locale but (italicized) primes in the German locale: 'C' locale: Signif. codes: 0 '***' 0.001 '**' 0.01 '*' 0.05 '.' 0.1 ' ' 1 German locale: Signif. codes: 0 ‘***’ 0.001 ‘**’ 0.01 ‘*’ 0.05 ‘.’ 0.1 ‘ ’ 1 System Information: R 2.7.1 i486-pc-linux-gnu Kubuntu 8.04 Any hints are welcome!
