Hi,
On my windows (xp) machine with Rtools29 (excluding cygwin dlls as I
have cygwin on my path) -make all recommended- for the latest R-devel
tarball (svn revision: 48093) fails when trying to build the
recommended packages:
1. Have you asked make rsync-recommended before (i.e. are the packages
actually there)?
2. If so, please install the cygwin dlls and try to remove cygwin from
your path. The may very well be some version conflicts in I cannot build
R / R packages if a full cygwin installation is around.

This bit apjaworski last week, but the naughty boy didn't include
R-devel in the discussion....
It boils down to problems with symlink handling. You unpack the tar file
and the .tgz links look like ordinary files with strange contents to
other tools.
The workaround is to run
make Rpwd.exe
make link-recommended
(or, maybe, to unpack with a different tar version, but I really don't
know).
Ah, sure, thanks, I always build from svn sources and hence say
make rsync-recommended
make recommended
If you omit
make rsync-recommended
you will need at least
make link-recommended
which is in fact the same but without the rsync step.

--- Making recommended packages
----- installing recommended package KernSmooth
Warning: invalid package 'KernSmooth.tgz'
Error: ERROR: no packages specified
make[1]: *** [KernSmooth.ts] Error 1
make: *** [recommended] Error 2
Looking at R_HOME/src/library/Recommended shows that none of the
timestamp files .ts are generated(?) in that directory. If I manually
create the empty timestamp files, build completes but -make check-
failed. I suspect something with my build tools is not right but what
could that be?
