Hi

I am building two packages:

- a data package which contains the data and function to extract it (several 
datasets, linked, like an sql database) and
- an analysis package which contains functions to analyse the data in the data 
package and depends on the data package.

The data package is updated often as the data is updated regularly, while the 
analysis package will (hopefully) be more static.

Now I created a report which I put in the vignette of the analysis package, 
which works nicely and the report is created when the analysis package is 
installed, but when the data package is updated, the user has to re-install the 
analysis package to re-create the report (vignette) of the updated dataset.

I know that I am abusing the vignette, but it works nicely.

My question:  Is there a way of re-creating the vignette by a user after they 
installed a newer version of the data package, or is there a better way of 
creating the report(s)?

Thanks,

Rainer
