[..... dropped ..... embarrassing / amusing distraction on svn/git ..... ..... started by the OP, not by Dirk ! ] > That said ..a small bug was introduced back in May ..... Yes, you are right. BTW: The reason that nobody (from R core, probably not many people otherwise) has found/mentioned this bug before is not the use of svn, but the fact that it is much more convenient (and hence somewhat recommended) to build R outside of its source directory, and in that case the two *.Rd files that belong to ./tests/ are not removed (from the *build* directory's ./tests/) Martin ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
