Hi, I installed R 2.9.0 a couple of days ago on a linux machine. At the root of installation, I see 4 directories: bin, lib64, share, and src. I don't see libR.so anywhere. (In the following context, . (dot) indicates the root of my insta- llation.) I do see: ./lib64/R/lib/libRblas.so ./lib64/R/lib/libRlapack.so I became aware of such as I was preparing for an installation of little r. The installation material stated to look for libR.so, and I want to make sure that the one I installed (2.9.0) is used by little r. Would someone please clue me in? Why don't I have libR.so and yet when I execute ./bin/R it says: R version 2.9.0 (2009-04-17) Regards, Tena Sakai tsakai@gallo.ucsf.edu [[alternative HTML version deleted]]
Hi, Maybe I know the answer to my own question. When I built R 2.9.0, I didn't say: ./configure --enable-R-shlib I know I have given "--prefix" flag, but that's the only flag I used. I would appreciate it, if someone would give me a definitive answer, however.

If so, the core utility Rscript is probably installed (it was added in 2.5.0 I believe) and provides the functionality of little r, including hash-bang lines. Check the bin folder in the R installation. If you are talking about something different, ignore this message :) -Charlie ----- Charlie Sharpsteen Undergraduate Environmental Resources Engineering Humboldt State University -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/I-don%27t-see-libR.so-in-my-installation-directory-tp23455074p23466363.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
