Hi all,

I've inherited in-house development package, which was developed on R v
2.6.1. I'm trying upgrade to R v 2.9.1. I have installed R from source, with
a shared library and tcktk support.
When installing myPkg, I use the following command:

>R CMD INSTALL myPkg

* Installing to library ‘/usr/local/lib/R/library’
* Installing *source* package ‘myPkg’ ...
** R
** inst
** preparing package for lazy loading

ERROR: building help failed for package ‘myPkg’

>find / -name "Rdconv.pm"
/usr/local/lib/R/share/perl/R/Rdconv.pm


Obviously, if I  run "R CMD INSTALL --no-docs myPkg" it installs fine. It
also installs with older versions of perl.
I'm using Ubuntu OS.

Any pointers in the right direction or what to look for would be very much
appreciated.

Grainne.
