Dear Ted:
Thanks very much. In fact, I did have a file named "Copy of
create.fourier.basis.R". I deleted it and got an even more cryptic
version of the same error message. I ultimately traced this to lines
like "<<<<<<< .working" inserted by subversion into a *.R or *.Rd file I
was using. I found this by finding a previous "*.tar.gz" file that
passed "R CMD check", studying the subversion log of 7 different changes
made by 3 people since that one that worked, and reviewing changes made
to at least 13 different files in that period until I found the problem.
Best Wishes,
Spencer

Just guessing here, but it looks as though an attempt has been made
to execute the following command:
cat ./R/Copy of create.fourier.basis.R
This may have arisen because there is indeed a file named
"Copy of create.fourier.basis.R"
but the command was issued to the OS without quotes; or (perhaps
less likely, because of the presence of the "./R/") the line
"Copy of create.fourier.basis.R"
was intended as a comment in the file, but somehow got read as
a substantive part of the code.
Good luck!
Ted.

Hello:
What do you recommend I do to get past cryptic error messages
from
"R CMD check", complaining "No such file or directory"? The package is
under SVN control, and I reverted to a version that passed "R CMD
check", without eliminating the error. The "00install.out" file is
short and bitter:
cat: ./R/Copy: No such file or directory
cat: of: No such file or directory
cat: create.fourier.basis.R: No such file or directory
make: *** [Rcode0] Error 1
---------- Making package fda ------------

Removing 'D:/spencerg/statmtds/splines/fda/RForge/fda/fda.Rcheck/fda'
Thanks for any suggestions. I have a "*.tar.gz" file that I hope
may not have this problem, but I'm not sure.
Thanks,
Spencer
