[R] Problems Building R on AIX 5.2.0.0 (Update)
Hi,
My previous message is appended: I'm still struggling with building on AIX.
I
updated my config.site to follow the suggestions from R-admin:
MAIN_LDFLAGS=-Wl,brtl
SHLIB_LDFLAGS=-Wl,-G
This led to an error during configure:
checking whether mixed C/Fortran code can be run... configure: WARNING: cannot
run mixed C/Fortan code
configure: error: Maybe check LDFLAGS for paths to Fortran libraries?
This confused me a bit, because before adding the MAIN_LDFLAGS and SHLIB_LDFLAGS
to config.site this step of configure did not show an error. When I googled this
I found a previous message from last year:
http://tolstoy.newcastle.edu.au/R/help/04/04/1622.html
At the end of this message Professor Ripley says:
"You need wherever libg2c.so is installed in your LD_LIBRARY_PATH."
So... I went looking for this file and could not find it! In /usr/local/lib I
have:
$ ls -al libg2c*
-rw-r--r-- 1 freeware staff 7751224 Jan 09 2004 libg2c.a
-rwxr-xr-x 1 freeware staff 714 Jan 09 2004 libg2c.la
But no libg2c.so appears to be on my system. Does this indicate a bad install
of gcc, or could anybody offer any suggestions on where to go from here?

Hello,
I am trying to build R 2.0.1 on an AIX 5.2.0.0 machine using gcc 3.3.2:
$ oslevel
5.2.0.0
$ gcc -v
Reading specs from /usr/local/lib/gcc-lib/powerpc-ibm-aix5.2.0.0/3.3.2/specs
Configured with: ../gcc-3.3.2/configure : (reconfigured) ../gcc-3.3.2/configure
--disable-nls : (reconfigured) ../gcc-3.3.2/configure --disable-nls Thread
model: aix
gcc version 3.3.2
Configure goes okay, but I get an error that I don't quite know how to
interpret
during make. I've included the summary output from the end of configure as
well
as the error that I get during make below. Any suggestions/recommendations are
very much appreciate: I'm stuck on ideas for what could be going wrong.
Paul
