Hi Dirk, I agree, very small world :).
For example, I have installed my package on Mac using R CMD install 'package', so I had already C/C++ compiler, it works well. Then I generate the tar.gz package using R CMD build ‘package'. But, when I try to install the tar.gz package on other machines (Mac Or Windows in my case), I must have a C/C++ compiler.. The point is that i like to install it without C/C++ compiler on the other machines. Following the ancient discussions of this email, I have to generate the binary package using: R CMD INSTALL --build ‘package', rather than R CMD build ‘package’. So in my case, there is a difference between R CMD INSTALL —build and R CMD build when generating a binary package.
