[R] Segmentation fault (Debian slink+libc6 2.1)
Hi, I've just upgraded my debian machine to the 2.1 libc6 libraries, and I started getting segmentation faults with R. I tried re-compiling and got the same problem. I checked with the dependencies for the binary package, and I have all the required libraries. Any ideas?

What I'd suspect is that you're missing an upgrade of some tools that go with libc2.1. (Compiler? binutils?) If you're in an investigative mood, try running under the debugger (bin/R -d gdb from your build directory) and see exactly where it is crashing. Systems that are designed with libc2.1 (RH6.0, Debian toy-of-the-day) don't seem to have this problem. -- O__ ---- Peter Dalgaard Blegdamsvej 3 c/ /'_ --- Dept. of Biostatistics 2200 Cph.
