[R] Problem with package development

[Nipesh Bajaj]

I have been struggling for last one hour but not yet any through.

However again I recreate the package.skeleton and run R CMD check trial3

Here are the errors:

warning in dir.create(pkgoutdir, mode = "0755"):
cannot create dir 'c:\Program files\R\R-2.13.0\bin\trial3.Rcheck',
reason .................
Error in printLog(Log, "", text, "\n"): object 'Log' not found
Execution haulted

Why I am getting this error? what is that "Log". I will really
appreciate if somebody please help me to figure out.

Thanks,
