A Web search suggests that texi2dvi may output this message by mistake
when the TeX installation is subject to a different problem:

Find the reshape.Rnw file and try running bin/R CMD Sweave
path/to/reshape.Rnw. It should produce reshape.tex. When you run
pdflatex reshape.tex, do you get a more useful error message?
