hello, I create a package which includes C code and Lapack. But when I run " R CMD check ". an error message, "/usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lfrtbegin " occurs. could you tell me what is the problem? the detailed message is as follows: [credsim@confsys ~/src]$ R CMD check var * checking for working latex ...

Why do you check "var" when the package claims to be called "WXT"? Before any checking it is a good idea to try R CMD INSTALL ... (which does not work either, I guess).

The best solution is to install it. On my system gannet% rpm -ql gcc-g77-3.4.2-6.fc3 /usr/bin/f77 /usr/bin/g77 /usr/lib/gcc /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2 /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/include /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/include/g2c.h /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/libfrtbegin.a /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/libg2c.a /usr/lib/gcc/i386-redhat-linux/3.4.2/libg2c.so ... The next best is to edit R_HOME/etc/Makeconf and remove -lftrbegin from FLIBS.> the detailed message is as follows: > [credsim@confsys ~/src]$ R CMD check var > * checking for working latex ...
