Dear Henrik,
Thank you for this information, I will try to install the patched version.
Best regards,
Christian

Just checked the SVN logs and the comparison towards file timestamps
have been dropped in R devel and R 3.0.1 SVN r63690 (Aug 25, 2013) and
newer. It is now simply comparing the set of files before and after.
Try with one of those and I'll bet you that clean=TRUE does what it
supposed to.

Dear Henrik,
I am trying to attach the 'QAReport.Rnw' file which I am using on my Mac to
reproduce your problem.
Best regards,

Dear Henrik,
Thank you for your explanation.
Yes, this behavior is reproducible many times.
When I copy both lines together into R, i.e.
Sweave("QAReport.Rnw")
tools::texi2pdf("QAReport.tex", clean = TRUE)
then the auxiliary files are deleted. However, when I keep the *.tex
file only and run:
tools::texi2pdf("QAReport.tex", clean = TRUE)
then these files are not deleted. I can delete them manually many times
and run texi2pdf() again, they will never be deleted.
I really hope that your patch will be applied, so that it works as
expected with the next Bioconductor release on October.
Best regards,
Christian

Dear Duncan, dear Marc,
Thank you for your fast reply.
Can you please tell me:
If texi2pdf() won't delete files how are the files deleted when the
directory structure is Test/inst/doc/?
Check if what you're observing is reproducible when you run it *many*
times. If not, see my previous reply.
/Henrik
Is this done by Sweave()?
Best regards,
Christian

Dear all,
To create a *.pdf file from a *.Rnw file I do:
olddir <- getwd();
setwd(outdir);
tryCatch({Sweave("QAReport.Rnw");
tools::texi2pdf("QAReport.tex", clean=TRUE)
},
finally = setwd(olddir)
);
This works fine, however 'clean=TRUE' does only work when:
outdir <- "Test/inst/doc/"
but does not remove the files *.aux, *.log, *.toc when:
outdir <- "Test/"
Why does function texi2pdf() require the directory structure for
vignettes for the deletion of interim files?
(The help file?texi2pdf does not mention that this structure is
necessary.)
Best regards
Christian
In the Details section of ?texi2pdf, there is:
"Despite the name, this is used in R to compile LaTeX files,
specifically those generated from vignettes."
Since it is intended specifically for package vignettes, the path
requirement should not be a surprise. :-)
There is no path requirement. Christian was incorrect in his
diagnosis.
texi2pdf won't delete files that existed before it was run, whether or
not they were changed during the run. That's likely what Christian was
seeing.
