I just noticed that CRAN Package check Error for Windows & Mac:
I've run into a problem with odfWeave 0.7.5 running under R 2.7.1 (Windows XP, SP2) doing some monthly production reports. Under 2.7.1 I'm getting various parsing errors after Sweaving starts, e.g.:
You might try to download an older version of XML to handle that; we had a similar problem with special characters, i.e. umlauts:
odfWeave and umlauts work with XML 1.9.0, but not with XML 1.95.2
Max Kuhn, Duncan Murdoch and Nathan Coulter are aware of the problem.
There is a Windows version of XML_1.93-2.3.zip available on my repository to help people work around this long-standing (and oft reported) bug in odfWeave. You can access it directly by http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin/bin/windows/contrib/2.7/XML_1.93-2.3.zip Recent versions of odfWeave/XML only work correctly in UTF-8 locales and hence not on Windows. -- Brian D.
