Do you still need help with this message? … Hi We purchased new Sun LX50 intel based server, and download 2.95.3 gcc intel for solaris8 as compiler to compile R Here is what I did #./configure --build=i386-sun-solaris #make And it fails with the following error gcc -G -L/usr/local/lib -o eda.so init.o line.o smooth.o ld: fatal: file line.o: wrong ELF machine type: EM_SPARC ld: fatal: File processing errors. No output written to eda.so collect2: ld returned 1 exit status *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `eda.so' Current working directory /fimatrix/froutines/r-project/R-1.6.1/src/library/eda/src *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' Current working directory /fimatrix/froutines/r-project/R-1.6.1/src/library/eda/src *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `all' Current working directory /fimatrix/froutines/r-project/R-1.6.1/src/library/eda *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' Current working directory /fimatrix/froutines/r-project/R-1.6.1/src/library *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' Current working directory /fimatrix/froutines/r-project/R-1.6.1/src *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `R' does anyone knows how to compile it under solaris for intel machine. thanks -Wendy Skip Dalrymple [[alternate HTML version deleted]]
