The R-exts manual still says
Note also that for running @LaTeX{}, the Debian @acronym{GNU}/Linux
@acronym{CRAN} check systems use the Debian TeXLive@footnote{currently
the long obsolete TeXLive 2009.} distribution
(@uref{http://packages.debian.org/@/en/@/sid/@/texlive}); the Fedora and
and what is in the footnote has not been true for quite some time as a visit
to the URL (or to the even more detailed
http://packages.debian.org/changelogs/pool/main/t/texlive-base/texlive-base_2012.20120611-5/changelog
will attest. In Debian, Texlive 2011 arrived last March, Texlive 2012 a
little later and is also current on Ubuntu.
So I suggest to use something like
Note also that for running @LaTeX{}, the Debian @acronym{GNU}/Linux, Fedora
and Solaris check systems on @acronym{CRAN} use current TexLive;
Thanks, Dirk
