我必须设置一台新计算机并使用Ubuntu 14.04作为正在运行的系统。我遵循了过去运作良好的所有指示。
问题与knit2pdf有关。在使用Rstudio通过.Rnw编译library(knitr)时，pdfLaTeX or XeLaTeX一切正常。因此，例如yihui Beamer .Rnw编译时没有任何PDF问题。使用knit2pdf会产生以下错误：
Error in texi2dvi(file = file, pdf = TRUE, clean = clean, quiet = quiet, :
Running 'texi2dvi' on 'Beamer.tex' failed.

我试图找出问题并遵循一些指示但没有成功：
我重新安装了Ubuntu并尝试了不同的事情
sudo apt-get install texlive-full
sudo apt-get install texinfo
