Dear all, I am trying to compile the package e1071 (version 1.3-11) with R CMD INSTALL. I tried with R 1.7.0 on Redhat Linux 2.4.7-10 and R 1.6.2 on Linux 2.4.9-34smp but keep getting the same error message during configure : WARNING: g++ 2.96 cannot reliably be used with this package. Please use a different compiler. Can anyone help me with this or at least point me in the right direction ? Thank you very much. Regards, Adai.

Thank you very much.<sarcasm> Which part of "use a different compiler" don't you understand ? </sarcasm> Seriously, RH earned a lot bad press with the gcc 2.96 release. You are currently experiencing why: it didn't work that well. Do yourself a favour and upgrade either your compiler, or your RH version. Or go Debian :) Dirk -- Don't drink and derive.

Thank you very much.We added this warning because g++ 2.96 breaks the C++ code of `libsvm' contained in the `e1071' package. If you don't use SVMs, you might interprete this warning simply as a general upgrade suggestion :) Best, David.> > Regards, Adai. > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://www.stat.math.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help >
