You quoted a message (skipping its date) that is rather old, R> difftime(Sys.Date()-1, as.Date("2011-09-23")) Time difference of 140 days So what follows is now somewhat out of context. | Today I needed to run | | sudo apt-get install texlive-fonts-extra | | in order to build a package in R 2.14.1 Ubuntu 11.10 | | Else I get the following warning/error: | | * checking PDF version of manual ...

Probably wisest to install | texlive-fonts-extra for now. ... the current r-base-dev package now has a 'Suggests:' on texlive-fonts-extra, partly in result of the thread you replied to, 4+ months later. All this is off-topic here anyway and should have been r-sig-debian. Hope this helps, Dirk -- "Outside of a dog, a book is a man's best friend.
