Building the pdf manual failed for me with this rather unhelpful message and backtrace:
devtools::build_manual(pkg = ".")
Error in `value[[3L]]()`:
! Failed to build manual
Run `rlang::last_trace()` to see where the error occurred.
Backtrace:

! LaTeX Error: File `inconsolata.sty' not found.
Describe the solution you'd like
It would be nice if the console error would bubble up to devtools so one could debug the problem much more speedily.
