When I do a
R CMD build --binary
then I get the messages at the end of this post unless I specify
LazyLoad: no
in the DESCRIPRION file. If I do that then everything proceeds smoothly. R CMD check proceeds smoothly in
either case. Is there something I should be aware of that is causing this message when I do not turn off
lazy loading?
I am using Windows XP and R 2.0.1 beta dated 2004-11-04.
Error in tools:::.read_description(file) : file '/DESCRIPTION' does not exist Execution halted make: *** [lazyload] Error 1 *** Installation of zoo failed ***
Removing 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/RW2001~1/library/zoo' Restoring previous 'C:/PROGRA~1/R/RW2001~1/library/zoo'
My guess is that you used backslashes to specify the path to the package, which seems to be handled incorretly. Try forward slashes instead!
I'll try to debug and comment on the results in yet another thread "Building a package under WIN2000 / rw2.0".
