Dear All,
I am trying to compile R-3.0 on Cray xe6 (HLRS) HERMIT, no success so far.
Here is my experience:
I use this to configure and make R:
CC="cc" \
CXX="CC" \
F77="ftn" \
FC="ftn" \
CPPFLAGS="-I$PREFIX/include" \
LDFLAGS="-L$PREFIX/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX}" \
./configure --prefix=$PREFIX \
--exec-prefix=$PREFIX \
--bindir=$PREFIX/bin \
--sbindir=$PREFIX/sbin \
--sysconfdir=$PKG/etc \
--localstatedir=$PKG/var \
--libdir=$PREFIX/lib${LIBDIRSUFFIX} \
--datarootdir=$PREFIX/share \
--datadir=$PREFIX/share \
--infodir=$PREFIX/info \
--mandir=$PREFIX/man \
--docdir=$PREFIX/doc/$PRGNAM-$VERSION \
rdocdir=$PREFIX/doc/$PRGNAM-$VERSION \
rincludedir=$PREFIX/include \
rsharedir=$PREFIX/share \
--disable-BLAS-shlib \
--with-blas \
--with-lapack \
--without-x \
|| exit 1
make || exit 1
