Just an observation/FYI on the new DESCRIPTION field 'VignetteBuilder'
available in R devel:

Unlike other package fields (Depends, Imports and Suggests),
VignetteBuilder does not support version specifiers, e.g.

VignetteBuilder: R.rsp (>= 0.8.2)

Yes, that's by design. It doesn't indicate how the package depends on R.rsp, only that the R.rsp package needs to be loaded before vignettes are built. You have to choose Depends, Imports or Suggests as well, and that's where the version dependency goes.

but only

VignetteBuilder: R.rsp

If adding a version specifier, 'R CMD build' complaints with an:

** installing vignettes
Error in loadNamespace(pkg) : there is no package called 'R.rsp(>=0.8.2)'
ERROR: installing vignettes failed

sessionInfo()
R Under development (unstable) (2013-02-12 r61929)
Platform: x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)

As I said, just an FYI.

Henrik

PS. Also, thanks for adding support for non-Sweave vignettes!
