I was finally able to get R to 'configure', 'make', and 'install' on Mandriva 2007. Itried to install gnomeGUI and I received an error. See below. At what step do I make R a shared library?

I use Ubuntu and instaling R using Synaptic. In this software have this observation about GnomeGUI: As of R 2.1.0, this interface is no longer provided with the upstream sources. As such, this package is now an empty stub that will be removed in a subsequent revision of the Debian package. So I think gnomeGUI not instalable in R now... -- Bernardo Rangel Tura,M.D.,Ph.D National Institute of Cardiology Rio de Janeiro - Brazil

Try running configure with the --help flag first to see all the possible options. Reconfiguring and recompiling will probably not, by itself, allow you to build the gnomeGUI. You may need to install some of the GNOME development packages from RPM's before this package can compile successfully. You may want to consider if learning emacs and ESS is a better use of your time.> > Ross > > =================================================> downloaded 74Kb > > * Installing *Frontend* package 'gnomeGUI' ... > Using R Installation in R_HOME=/usr/local/lib64/R > R was not built as a shared library > Need a shared R library > ERROR: configuration failed for package 'gnomeGUI' > * Removing '/usr/local/lib64/R/library/gnomeGUI' > > The downloaded packages are in > /root/tmp/RtmpkHUeyA/downloaded_packages > Warning message: > installation of package 'gnomeGUI' had non-zero exit status in: install.packages(c("gnomeGUI")) > ================================================================================================> > [[alternative HTML version deleted]] > > ______________________________________________ > R-help at stat.math.ethz.ch mailing list > https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help > PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html > and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. >
