Re: [R-pkg-devel] Help with CRAN error

[Roy Mendelssohn - NOAA Federal]

Glad you found the solution.  I would add as an aside,  I have found a good 
vignette is worth the effort.  R docs tend to be like Unix docs,  relatively 
short and terse and can be hard for someone not familiar with the package what 
all the options might do.  A good vignette allows you to lay out in detail how 
to use the package,  and to do so in context.

Re: [R-pkg-devel] Help with CRAN error

[Dev Chakraborty]

Roy,

I don't use a knitR file, but my DESCRIPTION file had a field:

VignetteBuilder: knitr

Deleting this field solved the problem (i.e., got rid of that message in my
original email)

Thanks for all your help.

Dev

If you can't find the solution yourself,  posting the top matter of your 
vignette file would also help.

I don't know how to fix it either.  That said, often a great first
step is to search for the error.  A Google search for, "Package has a
VignetteBuilder field but no prebuilt vignette index.", which points
to: https://stackoverflow.com/q/30976308.

And a Google search "VignetteBuilder" has several promising "how to"
results, and there is a "Non-Sweave Vignettes" section of Writing R
Extensions:
https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-exts.html#Non_002dSweave-vignettes.

It will be easier for others to help you if you can do some
investigation on your own and come back with more specifics.

Dear All,

I get the following message on running R CMD check -- as - cran:

Package has a VignetteBuilder field but no prebuilt vignette index.

I do not know how to fix this. Any help will be appreciated.
