[R] Problem compiling R1.3.1 on an Alpha after upgrading the readline and ncurses libraries.
Hi everyone, I have just installed new version of ncurses (5.2) and readline (4.2) on the Alpha I use. I tried compiling R from scratch (ie. I moved the version I had to another place and uncompressed R 1.3.1 again, then ran the configure script and make). Unfortunately, I get the following error message when it tries to make R.bin. Did I do something wrong when I updated these libraries? Should I install other versions of these? Here is the error I get: g77 -mieee -g -O2 -c xxxpr.f -o xxxpr.o gcc -o R.bin CConverters.o Rdynload.o RNG.o apply.o arithmetic.o array.o attrib.o bind.o builtin.o character.o coerce.o colors.o complex.o connections.o context.o cov.o cum.o dcf.o datetime.o debug.o devPS.o devPicTeX.o deparse.o deriv.o devices.o dotcode.o dstruct.o duplicate.o envir.o errors.o eval.o format.o fourier.o gram.o gram-ex.o graphics.o internet.o iosupport.o lapack.o list.o logic.o main.o match.o memory.o model.o names.o objects.o optim.o optimize.o options.o par.o paste.o platform.o plot.o plot3d.o plotmath.o print.o printarray.o printvector.o printutils.o random.o regex.o relop.o saveload.o scan.o seq.o size.o sort.o source.o split.o subassign.o subscript.o subset.o summary.o unique.o util.o version.o vfonts.o xxxpr.o ../unix/libunix.a ../appl/libappl.a ../nmath/libnmath.a -lg2c -lm -L/usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/alphaev6-dec-osf4.0f/2.95.2 -L/usr/lib/cmplrs/cc -L/usr/local/lib -lm -L/home/lucg5606/Local/lib -lz -lreadline -lncurses -lm /bin/ld: Unresolved: rl_callback_handler_remove rl_callback_handler_install rl_callback_read_char clear_history collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make[3]: *** [R.bin] Error 1 Here are the details of my system: platform alphaev6-dec-osf4.0f arch alphaev6 os osf4.0f system alphaev6, osf4.0f status major 1 minor 3.1 year 2001 month 08 day 31 language R I must also say that I compiled myself the ncurses and readline libraries... perhaps have I done something wrong there... Does anyone know where I can find precompiled version of these libraries for my system?
