Hi Malcom, It looks like there are two things going on. The first is that you are (as Nick suspected) including the file twice in the document. You should change the header of the babel block to output a SVG file:
#+begin_src R :results graphics output :exports both :file mtcars.svg ^^^ Then you don’t need the #+BEGIN/END_LATEX bit. The other bit is the svg package failing somehow. Does the mtcars.svg file exist in the same directory? (It isn’t being generated by the babel block, for example). Is the inkscape binary you installed on your $PATH? I am suspicious about this line from the log file: ,---- | ! LaTeX Error: File `mtcars.zzpdf_tex' not found. `---- The “zz” should not be there. Could a stray “zz” have gotten into the svg.sty file? The svg package doesn’t have the greatest error reporting; if you keep having trouble it may be helpful to add \usepackage{trace} to the top of the document, and \traceon just before the \includesvg command, to try to see in more detail what steps it is trying (and possibly failing). This will generate a voluminous log file... -- Aaron Ecay
