There is now and it looks like I got through the first phase. But, now I get the error below.
* DONE (MiscPsycho) * creating vignettes ... ERROR Loading required package: statmod Below is what alpha *would be* if the item were removed Error in texi2dvi(file = bft, pdf = TRUE, clean = FALSE, quiet = quiet) : unable to run pdflatex on 'MP.tex' Calls: buildVignettes -> texi2dvi In addition: Warning messages: 1: In readLines(f[1]) : incomplete final line found on 'MP.Rnw' 2: In system(paste(shQuote(latex), "-interaction=nonstopmode", texfile)) : "pdflatex" not found Execution halted I do have pdflatex, it's what I use all of the time. However, how do I point to it for this build process? > -----Original Message----- > From: James W.
