I believe the issue is actually quite simple: you need to run
make vignettes
when building from a tarball if you want the tangled vignettes and the
indices.
I'll make that automatic after more testing.

Turns out there was a bug in the code to install from tarballs, so base
package vignettes weren't fully installed. I've fixed it; installs from
R-patched or R-devel revisions after 59750 should be okay.

Thanks, Duncan
Can I ask you to check this one again?
Sorry, I can't help with this. If you build from svn or from a tarball,
then I could help, but someone else produces the rpms, and I don't have
access to a Linux system to try them.

Sorry I was unclear. I did build from R-patched tarball, from here:
ftp://ftp.stat.math.ethz.ch/Software/R/R-patched_2012-07-25.tar.gz
I get the same result whether I build that into an RPM or if I build
and install the "old fashioned" way (configure, make, make install).
The Sweave pdf is created, but not found inside R.
I just re-ran the compilation in an Emacs shell and you can see
everything that goes on:

As you will see, I run into problems with pdf creation in
make pdf
dealing with refman. I think that links back to the ancient tetex
toolkit and the lack of incolsolata font. If that is the reason R
can't find the vignette, I would be glad to know.
I do get the Sweave.pdf vignette created, just not indexed.
