Install extra fonts on top of basic texlive installation

tlmgr install collection-fontsrecommended collection-fontsextra

LaTeX errors found: ! LaTeX Error: File `inconsolata.sty' not found.

The following solution is copied from https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34524357/inconsolata-missing-to-build-r-vignette

Installing texlive-fonts-extra should take care of it.
You can also (though probably not recommented) tell R not to use inconsolata. Just change:

\DeclareOption{inconsolata}{\setboolean{Rd@use@inconsolata}{true}}

to

\DeclareOption{inconsolata}{\setboolean{Rd@use@inconsolata}{false}}

in your Rd.sty file. On my installation it is at :

/usr/share/R/share/texmf/tex/latex/Rd.sty

but a

locate Rd.sty

should find it on any system.
