[R] R-1.7.0; empty html files.

[Rolf Turner]

When I installed R-1.7.0, the *.html files in /usr/local/lib/R/doc/manual
all wound up being empty:

ls -l *.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-FAQ.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-admin.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-data.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-exts.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-intro.html
-rw-r--r--    1 root     other           0 Apr 16 15:52 R-lang.html

I thought that they got put in automatically, and indeed the
files are ***there*** there's just nothing in them.

I did the usual

	./configure
	make
	make check
	make install

and no errors seemed to occur --- other than the permissions
problem I alluded to in an earlier email.  When I noticed that
the *.html files were empty I tried doing

	make html

explicitly --- although the instructions seem to indicate that
this shouldn't be necessary --- and repeated the make install.
Not a sausage.

What am I doing wrong?
