Subject: [Rd] Error with named chunks in Sweave with the development version
 of R
Message-ID: <4D4FE76A.8020501@oncfs.gouv.fr>

Dear all,

There seems to be a problem with named chunks in Sweave with the version 
of R under development (downloaded yesterday). When I sweave the file 
toto.Rnw described at the end of this mail (Ubuntu 10.04 LTS), the 
function Sweave returns an Internal error:

 > utils::Sweave("toto.Rnw")
Writing to file toto.tex
Processing code chunks ...
  1 : echo term verbatim (label=a)
  2 : echo term verbatim (label=c)
  3 : echo term verbatim (label=b)
  4 : echo term verbatim (label=d)

Error:  chunk 4 (label=d)
Error in eval(expr, envir, enclos) : Internal Sweave error

I did not find the cause of this problem, except that it occurs when 
Sweave is called on a file with named chunks. Note that the function 
Sweave works fine with the latest stable version of R (both R-2.12.1 and 
R-patched). And I found nothing about this problem in the NEWS file of 
the development version. I am not sure, but I wonder whether this might 
be a bug... could you confirm?
