All, I'm trying to install R-base on RedHat Linux 7.2. Rpm complains that libreadline.4.1.so is needed; the problem is that I have libreadline4.2.so. What can I do to get around this? -Scott -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)

However, I compiled it using the 3.0.4 version of gcc and g77 so you'll need to install the runtime libraries for gcc 3.0.4. They're a part of the redhat updates so you can download them from http://www.redhat.com/errata or any suitable mirror. Oh yes, I've compiled R with pentium specific optimizations so you'll need a pentium or better to run it. -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Suchandra S.

BTW, on Debian they are called /lib/libreadline.so.4 and /lib/libreadline.so.4.2 and not libreadline.4.1.so or libreadline4.2.so (but I think this is a spelling mistake). ^^ ^ By, Sven -.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.- r-help mailing list -- Read http://www.ci.tuwien.ac.at/~hornik/R/R-FAQ.html Send "info", "help", or "[un]subscribe" (in the "body", not the subject !)
