Hi,

I'm just compiling R-1.7.0beta_2003-03-29.tar.gz on WinNT 4.0:

the installation of package grid fails (at least the build of help files):

---------- Making package grid ------------
   installing inst files
   adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION
   making DLL ...
   ... DLL made
   installing R files
   installing man source files
   installing indices
Error in !.listFilesWithType(vignetteDir, "vignette") :
         invalid argument type
Execution halted
make[1]: *** [indices] Error 1
make: *** [pkg-grid] Error 2
*** Installation of grid failed ***


Is this known or is it worth to debug?


BTW:
The following warning messages appear for package methods (expected???):

R/Makefile.win:9: warning: overriding commands for target 
D:/uwe-ns/R-1.7.0/library/methods/R/methods'
D:/uwe-ns/R-1.7.0/src/gnuwin32/MakePkg:97: warning: ignoring old 
commands for target `D:/uwe-ns/R-1.7.0/library/methods/R/methods'
