As the build process, especially for Windows, is changing
significantly for R 3.2.0, I am trying to build R-devel in
preparation. When running `make rinstaller`, I get the following
error:
cp -p ../../../etc/x64/Makeconf R-devel/etc/x64
mkdir -p R-devel/doc
cp -p ../../../doc/CRAN_mirrors.csv R-devel/doc
mkdir -p R-devel/doc/manual/images
cp -pR ../../../doc/html R-devel/doc
cp -p ../../../doc/manual/*.html ../../../doc/manual/*.pdf \
R-devel/doc/manual
cp: cannot stat '../../../doc/manual/*.html': No such file or directory
make[1]: *** [imagedir] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/cygdrive/f/R/R-devel/src/gnuwin32/installer'
make: *** [rinstaller] Error 2
Looking at the directories, I have "\doc\manual" and
"F:\R\R-devel\doc\html" and there are no .html files in the \manual
directory, only pdfs.
I am building on Windows 7 64 bit, so the MkRules.local is being used,
and the pertinent settings therein include:
BUILD_HTML = YES
MIKTEX = TRUE
TEXI2ANY = missing
Is it as simple as changing line 74 in the Makefile under
src/gnuwin32/installer from:
$(CP) -p $(R_HOME)/doc/manual/*.html $(R_HOME)/doc/manual/*.pdf \
to
$(CP) -p $(R_HOME)/doc/html/*.html $(R_HOME)/doc/manual/*.pdf \
Or is the problem that MIKTEX alone can no longer be used and texinfo
/must/ be installed (as is implied in
<http://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-devel/R-admin.html#Building-the-manuals>?
Thank you,
Avi
