I have an odd problem in building a package with only R-code in it.
I have a package mainly used by myself which I last  build under R
1.9.0.
The operation system is Win2000 5.00.2195, Service Pack 3

When I do:

c:\stat\r\rw2000\bin\Rcmd install --docs=normal --build
--library=c:\stat\R\bxc\library c:\stat\R\bxc\library.sources\xx

[moved to R-devel]

Works with forward slashes as follows:

 c:\stat\r\rw2000\bin\Rcmd install --docs=normal --build
 --library=c:\stat\R\bxc\library c:/stat/R/bxc/library.sources/xx

The seems to be related with the more recent threads
"Re: [Rd] wishlist: better error message in R CMD check"
"[Rd] creating a package without lazy loading"
on R-devel.

I'll try to debug.

then after updating help pages I get:

  preparing package xx for lazy loading
  Error in tools:::.read_description(file) :
          file '/DESCRIPTION' does not exist
  Execution halted
  make: *** [lazyload] Error 1
  *** Installation of xx failed ***

(Yes, I have a DESCRIPTION file).
Having made a few changes here and there in some of the functions I
transferred
them one at a time to a new folder and tried to build it there.

The probelm seems to be that once I exceed 5 functions in the package
the above
error appears, with 5 or fewer functions it works OK.

Any ideas?
