Dear list, today I stumbled across the function ?nsl()? for the first time in order to perform a hostname lookup. According to the R Reference Index (Version 2.9.1, page 1522), the function should be part of the "utils" package. However, I cannot find it in the utils package of my installation(s). I've tried the R-versions 2.8.1, 2.9.0...

...They should be in acinclude.m4 and then you should use aclocal to generate aclocal.m4 from acinclude.m4. acinclude.m4 4. A better --with-pcre and --with-zlib configure test. configure.in Some comments regarding your code in configure.in: 1. Hardcoding the need for -lsocket and -lnsl via $no_libsocket and $no_libnslis gross. Doing this means you don't know how to write a proper autoconf test to determine if these two libraries are needed. The solution is not to hack in the value with a case statement but to figure out the proper autoconf way of solv...

...nd is blowing. (1) This changes our configure script to prefer libtirpc if it is available. If libtirpc is _not_ available then: (a) Headers must be located in <rpc/xdr.h>, or the user must supply the right CFLAGS. (b) XDR functions must be located in one of -lportablexdr, -lrpc, -lxdr, -lnsl or no library at all (ie. -lc), and the user must set LDFLAGS if needed. (2) We no longer add these paths automatically to $(CFLAGS)/$(LIBS). Any part of libguestfs which needs <rpc/*.h> or the xdr_* functions must use $(RPC_CFLAGS)/$(RPC_LIBS) explicitly. (3) Previously Mac OS X had a work...

...CMD make check I am unable to run: R CMD make check-devel These latter tests fail. The failure occurs in the internet access if() conditional statement in these two tests: https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/tests/internet.R https://svn.r-project.org/R/trunk/tests/internet2.R In my environment, nsl("cran.r-project.org") returns a valid, non-null value but subsequent commands in those test files do not successfully access the internet. I'd like to be able to run the full test suite given I am building from source. I'm wondering if it's possible to make these conditionals...

What's the recommended way to check if an internet connection is available across platforms? I was using is.null(nsl()) but this does not work on windows. Thanks, Hadley

...not found So can one assign the function ``g'' somewhere where it **can** be found? I.e. use something like assign("g",g,envir=??????) Or is there some other magic incantation that can be used here to get nls to deal with a ``g'' defined inside the function which call nsl()? In the real problem the function g is a complicated gadget, taking different forms in different parts of its domain, so it is inconvenient-to-impossible to specify it explicitly in the formula in the call to nls(). Thanks for any help you can give. cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at m...

configure.in patches for 2.9.9p2: 1. Allow --with-pcre to take a path specifying the root of the PCRE install (ROOT/include, ROOT/lib) 2. Ditto for --with-zlib 3. $no_libnsl and $no_libsocket can be determined programmatically 4. Check for innetgr, getspnam, and util in the default $LIBS before checking in -lrpc, -lgen, and -lutil, respectively 5. dirname() is in -lgen on some systems (Solaris 2.5.1, IRIX) -- albert chin (china at thewrittenword.com) -- sni...

...ined, this causes HAVE_DEV_PTMX to be undefined. Why? (There is a comment saying that pty allocated with _getpty gets broken, but that is no problem in this case, as the pty is allocated by opening /dev/ptmx and not _getpty.) One more (minor) thing I noticed: the tests for no_libsocket and no_libnsl in configure.in are swapped. Systems that define one define the other too so everything still worked right... if test -z "$no_libsocket" ; then AC_CHECK_LIB(nsl, yp_match, , ) fi if test -z "$no_libnsl" ; then AC_CHECK_LIB(socket, main, , ) fi Thanks, and keep up the good w...

...pathconf() should be used instead of NAME_MAX. -- "buffer.c", line 57: warning: assignment type mismatch: volatile pointer to struct chunk_s {long len, array[4096] of char data} Self explanitory. -- In Solaris (and others), connect/socket are in libsocket.a, and gethostbyname is in libnsl.a. Need to add "-lnsl -lsocket" to the link lines for Solaris. This is probably best added in the vorbis-tools top-level configure.in in the "check for libraries" section. This will potentially add some useless libraries to the oggenc link line, but that's what you get for...

...e, I see the two bugs I reported to this list some time ago (with no response) are still there. Below is a patch to fix them, please tell me if you see anything wrong with it. (I have tested it on Debian woody, appears to work fine so far.) One bug is only swapped tests for no_libsocket and no_libnsl. The other bug looks more serious to me - quote from glibc manual: *Warning:* Using the `openpty' function with NAME not set to `NULL' is *very dangerous* because it provides no protection against overflowing the string NAME. You should use the `ttyname' function o...

Hello, The problem I'm working now requires to operate on big matrices. I've noticed that there are some packages that allows to run some commands in parallel. I've tried snow and NetWorkSpaces, without much success (they are far more slower that the normal functions) My problem is very simple, it doesn't require any communication between parallel tasks; only that it divides
