I do not get this error, nor is this present on R-forge. I strongly suspect that it is a problem with missing LaTeX packages when building the vignette. I cannot tell exactly which one because the errors are very cryptic. The LaTeX packages on which out vignette depends are:<div>
<br></div><div><div>couriers</div><div>hyperref</div><div>ulem</div><div>tikz (version 2.00)</div><div>parskip</div><div>geometry</div><div>epigraph</div><div>multicol</div><div>graphicx</div><div>float</div><div>natbib</div>
