Yes, I'm sorry I told you how vignettes are made. It was/is the
intention to use the same mechanism for package manuals, but it seems
we did not get there when this was worked on last summer.

Hmm, the construction of the PDF is done by pdlatex/hyperref, not by R. What
latex setup is this, and (guessing it is some version of MiKTeX) does it have a
texi2dvi.exe? If so, the conversion from our .tex file to PDF is managed
entirely by texi2dvi.exe, and my guess is that it has done too few passes. You
should be able to verify that by using Rd2pdf --no-clean and running texi2dvi
yourself on the saved .tex file. Most likely running pdflatex on the .tex one
more time will resolve this, so if you want to check texi2dvi.exe you would
need to copy the .tex elsewhere.
(The less likely alternative is that this is managed by tools::texi2dvi and it
is doing too few passes.)
If you have not already done so it would be worth checking that your latex
setup is fully updated: latex package hyperref is involved and that is updated
very frequently (more than weekly).
I'm seeing the same issue with ISwR. It looks like a generic LaTeX issue where
we need to wait with the makeindex step until the TOC is in place. An easy fix
would be to hand-edit the Rd2dvi script to make an extra pass. E.g. replace
if test "${out_ext}" = pdf; then
${R_PDFLATEXCMD} ${R_TEXOPTS} Rd2 || status=1
with
if test "${out_ext}" = pdf; then
${R_PDFLATEXCMD} ${R_TEXOPTS} Rd2 &&
${R_PDFLATEXCMD} ${R_TEXOPTS} Rd2 || status=1
and similarly for the non-pdf case, if you care.

Page numbers are listed correctly under 'R topics documented' at the front, but
incorrectly (offset by -2 pages) in the Index at the back. Following the
hyperlinked page numbers in the Index takes you to the wrong page. 2 pages
happens to be the length of the package overview man page inserted (out of
alphabetical order) after 'R topics documented'.
I'd be grateful for suggestions on what might be causing this and how I might
fix it. I'm using R 2.10.1 and Rtools 2.10.1.
