RCMD check fails on "checkin installed package size"

Hello Duncan,

This is what I get:
C:\Users\STME\Documents\R\win-library\2.13\AnnotationFuncs>du -k
209     ./doc
24      ./help
8       ./html
9       ./Meta
10      ./R
279     .

Kind regards,

Thanks. It worked.
I added the line "_R_CHECK_PKG_SIZES_=no" to /etc/Rcmd_environ (I am the only user of this computer).

Regarding the 'du' executable, it is found in the first directory in the PATH environment variable and came with Rtools for R 2.13.

R CMD check will try to run "du -k" while the current directory is the
one where it just installed the package during the check.  If you do
that from the command line, (i.e. install AnnotationFuncs, switch to
RHOME/library/AnnotationFuncs, and run "du -k") what do you see as output?

  Hi,

  When I run RCMD check on my package, I receive the following error:

  I am running it on Windows 7 (32-bit) and my PATH environment variable starts with this:
  C:\Rtools\bin;C:\Rtools\MinGW\bin;C:\Program Files\R\R-2.13.0\bin\i386;

  I have updated Rtools to the newest with 2.13.

  Any suggestions?

Set _R_CHECK_PKG_SIZES_ to 'no' (see 'Writing R Extensions' and its
references on customizing R CMD check), or correct your paths so the
'du' program in Rtools is the one that is found.  (The only reported
example was from using a different 'du' program.)

I believe that current R-patched works around this: R-devel definitely
does.

  Thanks in advanced,
