This may be an indication of what is wrong - I do not have an environment

No, that's fine.
Anyone can download the package, it's open source:
http://bioinformatics.iah.ac.uk/tools/download
I stripped it down to just the R, data and man directories and made a couple of
minor code changes.
Works for me in the sense that I get a binary package, *but* there are
several issues with the Rd format and it is recommended to use
R CMD INSTALL --build CORNA_1.2.tar.gz
on the tarball rather than
R CMD build --binary CORNA
on the source directory. Does the former work for you?
If not, please check your R Startup files if they contain strange code
and check your tempdir ...

Dear R-Help
My OS is Windows CP, I'm not sure my sessionInfo() is relevant but here it is:
R version 2.10.1 (2009-12-14)
i386-pc-mingw32
locale:
[1] LC_COLLATE=English_United Kingdom.1252 LC_CTYPE=English_United
Kingdom.1252 LC_MONETARY=English_United Kingdom.1252
[4] LC_NUMERIC=C LC_TIME=English_United Kingdom.1252
attached base packages:
[1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base
I installed RTools211.exe and my path is set to:
c:\Program Files\HTML Help Workshop;c:\Program
Files\R\R-2.10.1\bin;c:\Rtools\bin;c:\Rtools\perl\bin;c:\Rtools\MinGW\bin;%SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32\Wbem;C:\Program
Files\ATI Technologies\ATI Control Panel;C:\Program Files\QuickTime\QTSystem\
I have HTML Help Workshop installed.
You can remove c:\Program Files\HTML Help Workshop from your path since
it is no longer needed (nor useful) for R>= 2.10.0.
When I execute R CMD build --binary CORNA, I get:
* checking for file 'CORNA/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* preparing 'CORNA':
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
* removing junk files
* checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
* checking for empty or unneeded directories
* building binary distribution
WARNING: some HTML links may not be found
This indicates Rd file problems.
* installing *binary* package 'CORNA' ...
/cygdrive/c/Rtools/bin/cp: target `xf-))' is not a directory
ERROR: installing binary package failed
This is particularly strange. Which library PATHS (e.g. in environment
variable R_LIBS) are set?
Do we have access to the package in order to look if it is the package
or your environment which causes the problem?

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks
