$ R CMD install ggplot2
...
  scale-usage-d1                    text    html    latex
  scale_brewer                      text    html    latex   example
perl(90227) malloc: *** mmap(size=314880000) failed (error code=12)
*** error: can't allocate region
*** set a breakpoint in malloc_error_break to debug
Out of memory!
ERROR: building help failed for package 'ggplot2'

Any ideas?  That particular file is
http://github.com/hadley/ggplot2/tree/master/man/scale_brewer.rd, but
I can't see any reason it would be causing problems.  The whole
package is available at http://github.com/hadley/ggplot2/
