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.
Hi Spencer.
If you're using Windows, I really recommend using TortoiseSVN. It'll
make it very easy to see conflict markers like the one that caused your
trouble. (I don't like their compare utility, but it's easy to plug in
a different one. I use Beyond Compare.)
If you're not on Windows, there are probably similar things available,
but I don't know what they are.

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

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
