I found a strange  error while I used ?R CMD check? for package in Mac OS X

?LaTeX errors when creating PDF version.
This typically indicates Rd problems.
* checking PDF version of manual without index ... ERROR?

After I checked the .Rd files, I could not find any grammar mistakes. While
I checked it under Windows/Linux (older version), I didn?t find such errors.
I then downloaded older version, R 2.7 for mac OS X. R CMD check did not
return any similar error message. Therefore I suspect the current version R
2.9 probably has some bug(s) related to package building.

The likely explanation is that the checking in 2.9.0 (sic) is more thorough, so it is problems with your package or platform that the earlier version (there was no 'R 2.7': please do study the posting guide) did not report.

You need to look at the .log file in the .Rcheck directory.
