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?
Yes, it does work that way. What Hervé is talking about are cases where
people use Makefiles to bypass the normal process.

AfaIcs this is also how it worked in the past.
Best wishes

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.
