Diagnosing R package build warning: "LaTeX errors when creating PDF version"

Solution
Try `R CMD Rd2pdf mypackage` to create the manual, and possibly also set the `--no-clean` option to keep the temporary files. This should allow you to debug the LaTeX code triggering the error.
Problem
When building a package, I received the following warning: ``` * checking PDF version of manual ... WARNING LaTeX errors when creating PDF version. This typically indicates Rd problems. ``` I have no idea how to even begin diagnosing this. Is there a tool that tells me what .Rd file the problem is in? I get no warnings about any of my Rd files in the checking documentation step....
