similar to: LAPACK lib problem, lme4, lastest R, Linux

I am not sure if this is an R development problem or not. I am starting with completely clean OS and and installing the latest version of R without trying to anything special but I am having trouble with the LAPACK library linking when I try to build packages that require them. I thought perhaps my problem may be if interest here. I just dumped Vista off a laptop formatted the disk and

I feel like Marlon Brando in "On the Waterfront" where he's told "It's not your night, kid", except for me it has been the last two months trying to debug memory problems. Now I can't even install an old version of this package on a netbook running the Ubuntu 10.10 netbook remix because it can't find the libraries libf77blas and libatlas. I have even gone to

I thought I would try compiling R this time with the ATLAS libraries. I have compiled ATLAS and I have the following libraries: libatlas.a libf77blas.a libptcblas.a libtstatlas.a libcblas.a liblapack.a libptf77blas.a Is it sufficient to use ' --with-blas=libatlas.a ' when configuring or do I need to specify any of the other libraries as well? -- William D.

I just upgraded to Ubuntu 8.10 (i386) from 8.04. After the upgrade, I ran update.packages(.libPaths()[1]) in R to get the packages installed from source up to date too. Unfortunately, two packages could not be updated: mclust and mboost. In both cases, the error I got mentioned lf77blas. Here's the output for mboost: * Installing *source* package 'mboost' ... ** libs gcc -std=gnu99

Hello. I am a Linux neophyte and know almost nothing ?about compiling, so I would appreciate any help and advice y'all would care to offer. I am trying to compile the 64 bit version of R using a tuned ATLAS and LAPACK (ATLAS 3.9.24). I am running Ubunto 10.04 LTS (through wubi, FWIW). The ATLAS and LAPACK files (atlas.so, f77blas.so, lapack.so, and cblas.so) are sitting in the folder

I have R under Linux Kubuntu Hardy Heron 8.04 LTS. I am trying to install package 'lme4' and get the following error: ---- * installing *source* package ?lme4? ... ** libs gcc -std=gnu99 -I/usr/share/R/include -I/usr/share/R/include -I"/usr/lib/R/library/Matrix/include" -I"/usr/lib/R/library/stats/include" -fpic -g -O2 -c init.c -o init.o gcc -std=gnu99

Dear All, As suggested in the reply from Dirk Eddelbuettel to my post to R-dev I am reposting here as the problem still persists. Please see my post to R-dev under same heading for additional description if needed. In summary I am starting from a new installation of Ubuntu 10.10 as the single operating system on a reformatted disk with just the OS, ESS and emacs installed before installing R

Ok, moved to R-devel. I tried to build R-2.3.1. Since I intent to distribute this tuned R to all other who have a computer like mine here at work I thought it was best to stay with the latest stable release. About your suggestion, I could'n find xerblas.o file. And I don't know how to edit libf77blas.a. I tried to open it with VIM (http://vim.sf.net/) but there was a lot of strange

Hello. I know almost nothing about Linux, so I apologize if the answer to this is obvious. I am trying to compile R with ATLAS (successfully compiled 3.9.24 on Ubuntu 10.04 64 bit). I configured with: ./configure --enable-R-shlib --enable-BLAS-shlib --with-blas="-L/usr/local/atlas/lib -lf77blas -latlas" --with-lapack="-L/usr/local/atlaslib -llapack -lcblas" --with-x and I

Hi I just read the thread on gotoBLAS, as well as the excellent vignette of gcbd. I still have some confusion and would like to ask very basic questions, hope I am not taking too much of your time. The point that retained my attention was the question of using implicit (multi-threaded blas) versus explicit (parallel code) optimisation. As I understood, the ideal would be to use a

BACKGROUND R2.9.2 built on power5 aix5.3 using gcc 4.2.4 (also installed: tcl and tk 8.5.7) Access from a Windows XP machine using Exceed v9.0, aixterm (DISPLAY etc. setup) export LDFLAGS="-L/usr/lib64 -L/opt/freeware/lib64 -L/opt/freeware/64/lib -L/usr/X11R6/lib -L/opt/freeware/lib" export CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/freeware/include -I/usr/lpp/X11/include/X11"

Using ATLAS with R is an old topic quite covered in the "R Administration" manual (and by R's "configure" script collection). I still do not easily manage to build R properly on our new AMD Opteron (2-processor). I did work with the current Atlas 3.6.0, configured manually (but "express" version) to build a threaded ATLAS version, and successfully ran Atlas'

Hi, Since upgrading to version 2.11.0~20100402-1, starting R fails with: /usr/lib64/R/bin/exec/R: error while loading shared libraries: libblas.so.3gf: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory Is this occurring to others on sid? -- Seb

I think this is not a R-devel question. Sorry to all if I'm wrong, please let me know. I managed to build R successfully with the default BLAS but when I change the MKRULES to use ATLAS BLAS and set the path to "C:/cygwin/home/Administrador/ATLAS/lib/WinNT_ATHLONSSE2" I got the following error message (I'm posting only the final part, there was a lot of compilation before this):

Hi all, I'm stuck in the installation of R. When I run configure, I got the error: configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available I followed one answer in some post and use this: ./configure --with-prefix=/home/user/R-2.2.1 --with-readline=no It successfully configured but I encountered another problem while make: gcc -shared -L/usr/local/lib64 -o

I am trying to install R-2.3.0 on a 64bit linux box and encounter several error during the make step. I'd appreciate any help.

Hi, I tried installing R on my system (Debian Linux 2.2.17, i386). I find that libf77blas.so is missing. Can someone tell me where and how I can find this? A search in debian.org didnt turn up anything. Anyway help will be greatly appreciated.
