Hi Duncan, I must be misunderstanding something. It is not that I want them built at installation time, but when I try to display the html help for any function the html page is not built; e.g. cliking on the link to get() in the base library, the message appears:
An error occurred while loading file:///usr/local/lib64/R/library/base/html/get.html: The file or folder /usr/local/lib64/R/library/base/html/get.html does not exist.
