#38235: R documentation is missing
------------------------+--------------------------------
 Reporter:  jrblevin@…  |      Owner:  macports-tickets@…
     Type:  defect      |     Status:  new
 Priority:  Normal      |  Milestone:
Component:  ports       |    Version:  2.1.3
 Keywords:              |       Port:  R
------------------------+--------------------------------
 Could the `R` port be updated to install the documentation?  When I
 extract the source, there are texinfo sources in `doc/manual` which are
 not being installed in `/opt/local/share/info`.  Unfortunately, I don't
 quite understand the build process well enough to provide a patch.  If I
 understand the Makefile, however, the documentation should be getting
 built automatically (it's in the all rule), so I believe it's just a
 matter of copying the files after the build.

 Furthermore, there are some HTML files installed in
 `/opt/local/lib/R/doc/html/`, but all of the links from the index page are
 broken.  It seems the targets (e.g., R-lang.html and R-intro.html) should
 be built from the texinfo files.
