R help - Jul 2004 - Is there rpm for suse 9.1 under x86_64?

I recently upgraded to Suse 9.1 for Amd64.
So far I could not find precompiled binaries of R-1.9.1 for this case.
So I tried installation from source, but could not succeed. Although the 
configuration/installation procedure ran without problems, the make 
check always ended with errors. When trying to run R , to see what's 
going on, the eigen() reported error code -18.
So, is a  rpm for R-base-1.9.1 under x86_64 for Suse available, or how 
can I succesfully install from sources?
Thank's for reading this message, Peter

I can't get the upgrade working for me (SATA trouble -- again!) but I
have 9.0 on a system. This has run cleanly for a while with a
home-built RPM based on Detlef's SPEC file, as well as several local
builds. 

A good guess is that they upgraded GCC and something got broken --
again. You could try reducing the optimization levels on the relevant
files, or as the first thing on everything (-O0 in CFLAGS and FFLAGS).

How did you know I would, Peter? ;-)
