Duncan suggested R CMD check was not finding pdflatex, because there is no
.log file in the same directory as the .tex file.
However, the first line of output from R CMD check says:
> * checking for working pdflatex ... OK
Indeed:
pdu...@pdunnubuntu:~/DSdata/GLMsData.Rchecks$ R CMD pdflatex
This is pdfTeXk, Version 3.141592-1.40.3 (Web2C 7.5.6)
%&-line parsing enabled.
**
And it waits for input.
So that doesn't seem to be the problem.
Further suggestions?

You should also have a .log file in the same directory as the .tex file.
You probably have a new one now that pdflatex works; please move that
one aside and run R CMD check again. If you get a .log file, it should
list whatever the error was; you could compare it to the .log that
worked if you can't spot it. If you don't get a new log, that means R
CMD check couldn't run pdflatex.
