Michele,
I just compiled R and a bunch of packages on a fresh Mandrake 8.1 last week.
No problems at all. I just downloaded the R source from CRAN, binaries for
ATLAS, LAPACK, and libreadline, and away it went. Packages all compiled fine
with install.packages().
I'll double-check where I got the LAPACK binaries from, but I think it was
from the 8.1 rpms. ATLAS was precompiled from their website. libreadline
was definately from the 8.1 rpms.
Good luck.
Elliot.
