Dear R-help,
I have encountered some errors when trying to compile R-1.3.1 from source on
my WinNT4SP6 laptop (PII w/128MB RAM). I have installed all the tools
following the instruction in src/gnuwin32/INSTALL, with the exception that
the mingw compiler I have might be a bit older (they are the ones
recommended for R-1.3.0, I believe). I have also compiled the ATLAS
libraries from source using the cygwin compilers.
The first time through, I managed to compile R as well as all the base
packages. However, when I started R and tried to get help (and help.search,
too), I got an error message about unzip. I looked in the help
subdirectories, and they do not contain the zip files that are suppose to be
there.
Not knowing what to do, I re-started from scrach (meaning I did a "make
distclean" from src/gnuwin32 and "make BUILD=mingw32" again).
This time I
did notice some error messages when compiling help files. Not only that, it
also failed to compile loess in the modreg package. The abbreviated errors
are as follows:
{Typical error #1: get it for all packages.}

Can anyone help? I'm really clueless at this point... Any help is much
appreciated!
