It was very straightforward indeed.
Patching line 324 of roclet-rd.R with the following seems to do the trick:
if (is.null(name)){
# get the location and filename from srcref
ll <- partitum$srcref$lloc
stop("Missing name in block ", basename(partitum$srcref$filename),
":lines ", ll[1], "-", ll[3])
}
More verbose error messages for other types of errors (e.g. related to
wrong usage of roxygen flags) would still be nice to have as well, but
this at least allows to pinpoint very problematic blocks.
This brought me to another question (which might need a separate post
though): it seems that union class names are not extracted (throws the
error: Missing name).
Thank you
Renaud

I know it is my third post today... I would really like to migrate my

into troubles (...).
I now get the following error message:
Error in roclet_rd_one(partitum, base_path) : Missing name
It seems that any roxygen block could throw this error, and it is very hard
to track down the issue in big projects.
It would be nice to provide the user with at least some more details on
which block was being parsed when the error occurred. Give the filename and
line number would obviously be even better.
Yes, agreed.
Hadley, I saw your Feature-Issue on the subject
(https://github.com/klutometis/roxygen/issues/13).
Does the development version implement this feature already?
No, not yet.
