Hi all, I downloaded a R package (supclust, not from CRAN) in my directory, then type: markov:/home/pingzhao> R CMD INSTALL supclust_1.1.tar.gz -l ~/lib but met the following errors * Installing *source* package 'supclust' ... ** libs /usr/local/lib/R/bin/SHLIB: make: not found ERROR: compilation failed for package 'supclust' Does it mean the R has not properly installed? what are problems here??? Thanks, Pingzhao

Did you build R on that machine, or was a pre-built binary installed? Dirk -- Don't drink and derive. Alcohol and analysis don't mix.

You need standard development tools to install source packages. Duncan Murdoch
Hi all, The R was installed by system adminstrator. Here make is used to compile C code, right?, but the compile tools C, C++,etc. are there. Could any one give me somes hints on how to fix this problems?
