I am trying to compile R-1.6.1 on an itanium.
using either gcc 2.96 or gcc 3.0.4 nad either
the supplied Redhat blas libs or the supplied code (ie
wiht the --no-blas option) I get this error.
Has anyone who has compiled R for the itanium advise
me on the compilers versions and flags that they used?
thanks
bye

Java has certainly revolutionized marketing and litigation.

The page at http://buildd.debian.org/build.php?arch=ia64&pkg=r-base shows logs for all builds since R 1.3.1. All of those would have used our scheme of atlas (at runtime, if available) or else default blas. IIRC we always imposed at least a gcc 3.0 version on ia64. We recently switched to using gcc 3.2.* on every platform, so the point is a little moot. Hope this helps, Dirk -- Three out of two people have difficulties with fractions.
I think you need to use a later compiler, one with a shared libg2c: open.o is in libg2c. With the system you are using, Fortran code cannot be used in shared (.so) objects. As Dirk E. says gcc 3.2 works on Debian, you could try that (although Debian had a relocatable libg2c when gcc did not). Alternatively, try rebuilding the g77 libraries with PIC flags. While you are at it, why not use the current R-1.6.2?
