Dear all I already posted this problem to r-help in mid-decembre; see http://www.r-project.org/nocvs/mail/r-help/2000/3876.html But, up to now it did not manage to get R properly working. I reinstalled R-1.0.0, R-1.1.1 and R-1.2.0 from scratch, and always run into the same error message: ... [Previously saved workspace restored] now dyn.load(/usr/R/lib/R/library/ctest/libs/ctest.so).. >R_ReplConsole(): before "for(;;)" {main.c} Segmentation fault (core dumped) Note that within each directory (i.e. /usr/R-1.0.0, /usr/R-1.1.1 or /usr/R-1.2.0) I did the following commands: $ ./configure --with-f2c --prefix=/usr/R $ make and R was configured with Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/R C compiler: gcc -mieee-fp -D__NO_MATH_INLINES -g -O2 C++ compiler: c++ -mieee-fp -g -O2 FORTRAN compiler: f2c X11 support: yes Gnome support: no Tcl/Tk support: yes R profiling support: yes R as a shared library: no Before each call of "make install", I cleaned the "/usr/R" directory. Each time I used the command $ /usr/R/bin/R I even tried to install the RPMS and SRPMS, but I always get the same error message :-( There's sth. strange going on and I would appreciate any help.

Have you considered an upgrade? I wouldn't be too surprised if e.g. glibc had an error affecting dynamic loading in that particular version. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.

Sequence of events: 1. I loaded a two-processor Pentium Pro system with Red Hat Linux 7.0. I loaded *everything*. 2. I downloaded R-base-1.1.1-3.i386.rpm from the CRAN archive and installed it with no problems. 3. Then I spotted R-base-1.2.0-2.i386.rpm and downloaded it. It installed fine, but when I tried to execute the "demo("graphics")" command it gave some errors. 4. Then I downloaded R-base-1.2.0-3.src.rpm and tried to build it. The build job blew up. 5. Finally, I downloaded the latest gcc (2.96-69) and latest glibc (2.2-9) from Red Hat and installed them. 6. Now the R-base-1.2.0-3.src.rpm builds successfully, and the resulting R-base-1.2.0-3.i386.rpm installs and the 'demo("graphics")' runs to completion. -- znmeb at teleport.com (M.
