Context: R2.15-0 on Ubuntu.

1. I get a WARNING from CMD check for "Package vignette(s) without corresponding PDF: In this case the vignettes directory had both the pdf and Rnw; do I need to move the pdf to inst/doc?

I'm reluctant to add the pdf to the svn source on Rforge, per the usual rule that a code management system should not have both a primary source and a object dervived from it under version control. However, if this is the suggested norm I could do so.

2. Close reading of the paragraph about vignette sources shows the following -- I think? If I have a vignette that should not be rebuilt by "check" or "BUILD" I should put the .Rnw source and pdf in /inst/doc, and have the others that should be rebuilt in /vignettes. This would include any that use "private R packages, screen snapshots, ...", or in my case one that takes just a little short of forever to run.

3. Do these unprocessed package also contribute to the index via \VignetteIndexEntry lines, or will I need to create a custom index?
