Hi all,

For some time now I am unable to properly R cmd check my own package because I am unable to install the dependency Rgraphviz on my windows 7 64 bit machine. I followed the steps in Rgraphviz's README, but I get an error message when installing Rgraphviz from source that does not mean much to me. I would be grateful if someone could help me out  by pointing me my mistake and/or the direction of a possible solution.

Best,

Jelle

Here's what I did, following the README:
- installed latest Rtools 2.15
- installed graphviz 2.28.0
- created environment variables GRAPHVIZ_INSTALL_DIR , GRAPHVIZ_INSTALL_MAJOR &c as README says.
- put Rgraphviz's bin directory in my PATH

Then I try to install from source, getting the following error(s). SessionInfo below.
