Hi Duncan
wouldn't it be possible that by default the Sweave.sty in share/texmf is
found by 'R CMD build' for use by package vignettes without manual
intervention?
AfaIcs this is also how it worked in the past.
Best wishes
Wolfgang

Hi,
I found the following problem with recent R-devel
(2010-08-26 r52817) on Windows (32-bit and 64-bit):
'R CMD build <pkg>' gets stalled during vignette
creation for packages that have a Makefile in <pkg>/inst/doc.
It seems that the problem is that the commands used in the
Makefile for converting .tex to .pdf are not able to locate
the Sweave.sty file anymore (if I drop this file to
<pkg>/inst/doc, then the problem goes away).
This sounds like a problem that only the package maintainer could
address. Presumably it will be temporary: once they adjust to the new
organization of the share/texmf directory, things will be fine again.
The reorg is described in this NEWS item:
* Directory R_HOME/share/texmf now follows the TDS conventions, so
can be set as a texmf tree ('root directory' in MiKTeX parlance).

I noticed that the location of Sweave.sty shipped with
R has changed recently (moved from ${R_HOME}/share/texmf
to ${R_HOME}/share/texmf/tex/latex/). Could that be related
to the problem?
I don't see that problem on platforms other than Windows or
with R < 2.12
Thanks,
H.
