Dear R-devel list, My name is Guillermo Vinué. I have created an R package that includes a vignette. Earlier on, to test my package, I tried to install it both in Linux and Windows and it worked. My vignette was in /inst/doc.
Now, I have finished for good and before submitting my package to CRAN I've tried to install it again first in Linux and then in Windows (I removed that first installation some time ago). My package was succesfully installed in Linux (Fedora 18 and R 2.15.2) and the vignette was available. However, when trying to install it in Windows (R 3.0.2), unfortunately the vignette didn't appear. My vignette is build with knitr. In fact, if I first install the package on Windows, the vignette is accesible, but then in Linux, not. I have read that as from R 2.14.0 the preferred location for the Sweave sources is the subdirectory vignettes of the source packages, but for compatibility with earlier versions of R, vignette sources will be looked for in inst/doc if vignettes does not exist. Where do I have to put my vignette so that it could be available with any installation and which files (.Rnw or .pdf) should be included?. I hope you can clarify my doubts. I have seen the collection of prior postings to the list, but I have not found a specifical answer to my doubts . Thank you very much in advance. Best regards, Guillermo ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
