Vignettes are not built

[hsonne]

What do I do wrong? The folowing does not install vignettes on my computer:

devtools::install_github("KWB-R/kwb.pkgbuild", build_vignettes = TRUE)

Jim (Hester) has the solution, see here: r-lib/devtools#1578

remotes::install_github(..., build = TRUE, build_opts = c("--no-resave-data", "--no-manual") (removing the --no-build-vignettes) option which is the default.

You are my hero. Unfortunately I get this:

Check your PANDOC version:
rmarkdown::pandoc_version()

Versions < 2.0 seem to have some problems with "https:"

It worked with pandoc-2.2.1 on my computer.

Now I downloded the preview RStudio (https://s3.amazonaws.com/rstudio-ide-build/desktop/windows/RStudio-1.2.1163.zip) which ships with pandoc 2.5 and that also works for me!

If you want to test the new RStudio you can do that as it is portable:
