[Rd] Error in generating sweave-tex -> pdf file-cont.

[carol white]

I also copied Sweave.sty in the directory of my Rnw file (according to 
http://www.stat.uni-muenchen.de/~leisch/Sweave/FAQ.html) but texi2dvi not found 
when I ran R CMD check. I also found this solution inconvenient because if one 
develops different R packages, he shouldn't copy the Sweave.sty in all 
directores containing Rnw file.

I meant Sweave.sty, there's no separate Sweave package.  It should be in 
the R home directory, somewhere within share/texmf.
