Hi there, I think there is a typo in the src/scripts/config file for R 3.6.0 This is my R version: platform x86_64-suse-linux-gnu arch x86_64 os linux-gnu system x86_64, linux-gnu status major 3 minor 6.0 year 2019 month 04 day 26 svn rev 76424 language R version.string R version 3.6.0 (2019-04-26) nickname Planting of a Tree I think that on line 277 of src/scripts/config "CXX17PICFLAGSS" should read "CXX17PICFLAGS" On my UNIX-alike, without this change I get: R CMD config CXX17PICFLAGS ERROR: no information for variable 'CXX17PICFLAGS' but if I delete the second S, then I get: R CMD config CXX17PICFLAGS -fPIC which is the same as on R 3.5.2 Have had a look and couldn't see an existing bug report, apologies if I missed it (am trying to follow the advice here: https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html)<https://www.r-project.org/bugs.html>.

The typo is fixed in the sources of both "R-devel" and "R 3.6.0 patched" now. With grateful regards, Martin -- Martin Maechler ETH Zurich and R Core Team
