Dear Team, Maybe somebody already tried to install mpfr and gsl packages for R on SLES. Exactly I try to install Rmpfr_0.6-1.tar.gz and gsl_1.9-10.3.tar.gz on SLES11 SP4. These are the available packages from official SLES SDK media: rtest:/home/ruser # rpm -qa | grep -i gsl gsl-devel-1.11-1.30 gsl-1.11-1.30 rtest:/home/ruser # As I understand gsl is from 1.11 till 1.30 level. rtest:/home/ruser # rpm -qa | grep -i mpfr libmpfr1-2.3.2-3.118.1 mpfr-devel-2.3.2-3.118.1 rtest:/home/ruser # GSL installation: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/gsl/index.html SystemRequirements: Gnu Scientific Library version >= 1.12 rtest:/home/ruser # R CMD INSTALL gsl_1.9-10.3.tar.gz * installing to library ?/usr/local/lib64/R/library? * installing *source* package ?gsl? ... ** package ?gsl? successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked checking for gsl-config... /usr/bin/gsl-config checking if GSL version >= 1.12... checking for gcc... gcc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc accepts -g... yes checking for gcc option to accept ISO C89... none needed configure: error: Need GSL version >= 1.12 ERROR: configuration failed for package ?gsl? * removing ?/usr/local/lib64/R/library/gsl? rtest:/home/ruser # Rmpfr installation: https://cran.r-project.org/web/packages/Rmpfr/index.html SystemRequirements: gmp (>= 4.2.3), mpfr (>= 3.0.0) rtest:/home/ruser # R CMD INSTALL Rmpfr_0.6-1.tar.gz * installing to library ?/usr/local/lib64/R/library? * installing *source* package ?Rmpfr? ... ** package ?Rmpfr? successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked checking for gcc... gcc -std=gnu99 checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking for suffix of executables... checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether gcc -std=gnu99 accepts -g... yes checking for gcc -std=gnu99 option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking how to run the C preprocessor... gcc -std=gnu99 -E checking for grep that handles long lines and -e... /usr/bin/grep checking for egrep... /usr/bin/grep -E checking for ANSI C header files... yes checking for sys/types.h... yes checking for sys/stat.h... yes checking for stdlib.h... yes checking for string.h... yes checking for memory.h... yes checking for strings.h... yes checking for inttypes.h... yes checking for stdint.h... yes checking for unistd.h... yes checking mpfr.h usability... yes checking mpfr.h presence... yes checking for mpfr.h... yes checking gmp.h usability... yes checking gmp.h presence... yes checking for gmp.h... yes checking for __gmpz_init in -lgmp... yes checking for mpfr_init in -lmpfr... yes checking for mpfr_digamma in -lmpfr... no configure: error: MPFR Library must be at least version 3.0.0, see README ERROR: configuration failed for package ?Rmpfr? * removing ?/usr/local/lib64/R/library/Rmpfr? rtest:/home/ruser # Maybe R detects the packages wrongly ? Can I edit source to ignore ? Can I use Rmpfr and gsl with original SLES SDK packages ?
