Hola!

I got past the problems I asked about two days ago, thanks. No I am updating
CRAN package asypow (the daily package check on CRAN gave warnings due to
.Rd problems, fixed).


Now it PASSED Rcmd check
(WindowsXP home edition, rw2000dev, on a new toshiba laptop, if that matters.)


but then Rcmd build --binary



Kjetil, works for me with the asypow 1.0, R-2.0.0 alpha (2004-09-16).

Which version of R (I mean the date, a lot of stuff changed during the last 2 weeks re. lazy loading and related bug fixes on Windows)?

If it still does not work with a recent alpha version, please send me the source package.

OK, just downloaded latest rw2000dev, but before installing, trying what you says below:


What happens if you try R CMD INSTALL --build



With LazyLoad TRUE this gives the same error:

Kjetil,

I tested the package and it appears to binary-build perfectly on my machine.
Have you made a clean build from scratch (don't only overwrite any old directories of R)?
Have you set all the paths correctly and are all tools installed?

Error in tools:::.read_description(file) :

Again, with LazyLoad FALSE, it works. (This is rw2000dev dated 2004-09-13).

Then installing todays build:   (dated  2004-09-17)

(again LazyLoad TRUE)
-- passes Rcmd check
But again the same problem with Rcmd build --binary

Ahhhhh! Here you will need forward slashes:

  R CMD INSTALL --build ../library/asypow
or
  R CMD BUILD --binary ../library/asypow


Uwe


gives exactly the same error message.

Changing to LazyLoad FALSE  the problems disappear.

There is probably something with the package hindering lazyloading, but it is still strange
that it passes "Rcmd check" when a binary package cannot be built.
