[R-SIG-Mac] latex: command not found

[cstrato]

Dear Simon

Thank you, too! Sorry, my stupid mistake, and I realized too late that I 
could have typed "latex".

With one package now everything works fine.

In contrast, with my other package I get an error. Looking at the 
log-file I see that
latex does not understand the command:
  \url{http://nnn.com}

Interestingly, the identical Snw-file runs fine on FC4.
Do I have to define \url{} in the Snw-file on the Mac?

Moreover, I get the following output:
--- running texi2dvi on vignettes
kpathsea: Running mktexpk --mfmode / --bdpi 600 --mag 1+0/600 --dpi 600 
tcrm1000
mktexpk: Running mf-nowin -progname=mf \mode:=ljfour; mag:=1+0/600;
