No manual pdf created during build of R package

A solution would just be to run $ R CMD Rd2pdf <package name> if the package is already built, or uncheck Use devtools package functions if available

devtools box

For whatever reason, devtools injects --as-cran --no-manual into the build process, even though you don't specify it as a user (you can see this in your build log in RStudio).
