Thanks.  I am old and slow and often overlook things,  but I don’t see the 
tools directory in that file that you are pointing to,  which would be 
consistent with the error message you are getting because that is where the 
file being name reside.  So you can either add that to the .Rbuildignore. or 
remove it if not needed.

HTH,
