Hi, I altered .internal file as Ligges indicated, but I have a problem when I make "R CMD build <pkg>":
ERROR packaging into .tar.gz failed The question is the following: what is the problem? I have installed Rtools, Must I do anything else?. Obs.: I work under Windows 7, but the package generated will be used under windows and mac. Thanks in advance.
