Subject: [Rd] installation of source package with empty man directory fails
	(PR#13685)
Message-ID: <20090502113009.0D0332832187@mail.pubhealth.ku.dk>

Full_Name: Daniel Sabanes Bove
Version: 2.9.0
OS: openSUSE 11.1 (2.6.27.21)
Submission from: (NULL) (91.13.255.113)


- Situation:
Checking or installing an R package with existing but empty man directory fails.
Perhaps this is a feature, but then a nice error message like
"Subdirectory 'man' contains no help pages!"
would be great.

- Error:
* Installing *source* package ?test? ...
** R
** preparing package for lazy loading
** help
*** installing help indices
Fehler in `[.data.frame`(M, , 4) : undefined columns selected

- Reproduce:
Start an R session, create (at least) one test object and run package.skeleton.
Then R CMD check the test package.
