Hi, I got an error while compiling the R-devel (R-2.5.0) package under Redhat Linux, but the R-patch package (R-2.4.1) was compiled perfectly fine. The following is what I got from the R-devel package downloaed on Jan. 30th., 2007: ----------------------------------------------------------->./configure.... R is now configured for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Source directory: .

Any suggestions? Thanks, Xinxia
It is Feb 2 today: this was fixed 60 hours ago. In any case, R-help is not the list to discuss any aspect of R version 2.5.0 Under development (unstable) (2007-02-01 r40632) ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ which cannot be expected to build in all locales and architectures at all times. (This was a UTF-8 x 64-bit problem, and you omitted to tell us your locale, crucial here.) 'R-devel' is not a package: it is both a series of versions of R and a mailing to discuss R developments (amongst other things).

Thanks a lot for the quick help.
