[R] Error building package: LaTeX error when creating PDF version

Hi all
 
I am trying to build an R package, which I have successfully done many times before, but have an error I cannot trace.  I hope someone can help me.
 
Here's is some edited output (full output below if it is useful):
 
pdunn2 at PDunnUbuntu:~/DSdata$ R CMD build GLMsData
* checking for file 'GLMsData/DESCRIPTION' ... OK
* preparing 'GLMsData':
* checking DESCRIPTION meta-information ... OK
* removing junk files
* checking for LF line-endings in source and make files
* checking for empty or unneeded directories
* building 'GLMsData_0.7.tar.gz'

pdunn2 at PDunnUbuntu:~/DSdata$ R CMD check GLMsData
* checking for working pdflatex ... OK
* using log directory '/home/pdunn2/DSdata/GLMsData.Rcheck'
* using R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17)

<SNIP: No errors or warnings in sniped bit; everything is OK>
 
* checking data for non-ASCII characters ... OK
* checking examples ... OK
* checking PDF version of manual ... WARNING
LaTeX errors when creating PDF version.
This typically indicates Rd problems.
* checking PDF version of manual without index ... ERROR
 
 
So there is an error making the PDf version of the package manual.  That's fine; I am happy to fix it.  But first I need to find it.
 
So I enter the directory GLMsData.Rcheck and find the corresponding tex file for the manual, and run  pdflatex  on this tex file:
 
pdunn2 at PDunnUbuntu:~/DSdata$ cd GLMsData.Rcheck/
pdunn2 at PDunnUbuntu:~/DSdata/GLMsData.Rcheck$ pdflatex GLMsData-manual.tex

<SNIP again; no errors>

Output written on GLMsData-manual.pdf (79 pages, 405091 bytes).
Transcript written on GLMsData-manual.log.
pdunn2 at PDunnUbuntu:~/DSdata/GLMsData.Rcheck$             
 
 
So from what I gather:
* R CMD check  finds an error when using  pdflatex  to make the PDF version of the manual
* But when I manually run  pdflatex  on the tex file, it works OK.
 
Obviously, I am missing something.  Can someone tell me what it is?  I can't find enlightenment on the archives or the manuals.

Thanks everyone.

P.
