I am trying to compile the newest version of R. I am using g77 version 3.4.3
and gcc 4.0. After running gnu make (version 3.8) I get the following error:
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :

Did you read (a bit in) the "R Administration and Installation" manual? In any case, for a bug report, this did not give enough information (e.g., what version of Unix are you using ?). Please, rather send a *question* to R-devel (in this case) or R-help, rather than producing a bug report, unless you *really* know that something *is* a bug. Regards, Martin Maechler, ETH Zurich

Hi,
I have encountered the same problem as the original poster, Andrew,
even when matching C and fortran compiler versions. I have tried both
gcc-3.3 with g77 (version 3.4.3) via
./configure CC=gcc-3.3
and gcc 4.0.0 with gfortran (version 4.0.2) via
./configure FC=gfortran
but both resulted in the same error
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
unable to load shared library
'/R-2.4.0/library/tools/libs/tools.so':
dlopen(/R-2.4.0/library/tools/libs/tools.so, 6): Symbol not found: _z_abs
Referenced from: /R-2.4.0/lib/libRblas.dylib
Expected in: flat namespace
Execution halted
I don't want to claim this is a bug, but to point out that matching
(major) versions of compilers does not cure the problem.
Best wishes, Max
