[R-pkg-devel] R CMD check not finding my vignettes

[David Hugh-Jones]

Hi Uwe,

Indeed yes, but my built tarball has got the files in inst/doc as shown. If
I then run 'R CMD check' on that tarball, I get the error quoted. Is there
something happening that I don't understand?

Incidentally, the tarball also has files in the vignettes directory: (a)
the original .Rmd files and (b) HTML files. My original directory has all
of Rmd, HTML and PDF files in the vignettes directory, but for some reason
the PDFs don't get included when the tarball is built.

Cheers,
David
