My appologies, this estimation is about right, I spent last week at COMPSTAT in prague and didn't follow the list closely. Inspite of this fact I believe my posting is not entirely out of date. regards Diman Todorov ------------------------------ You are 8 days behind the times -- take a look at the current R-devel.

This has been in the R-admin manual for a least a week, and I reported it here earlier than that. R 2.0.0 alpha does not allow f2c on 64-bit platforms. It's all been dealt with quite awhile ago ....

When trying to build R-1.1.0, the configure script reported no Fortran compiler, even though '/usr/bin/f2c' was present, and R-1.0.1 had found and successfully used this. I traced this to an apparent typo in line 2067 of configure: for name in g77 fort77 f77 f90 xlf cf77 fc; do changing this to: for name in g77 fort77 f77 f90 xlf cf77 f2c; do allowed the script to 'find'

Unless I force the Fortran compiler through --with-g77, configure fails to find and use the installed g77. I would submit a patch for configure.in, but I can't quite follow the logic in configure.in. $ ./configure creating cache ./config.cache [...] checking for main in -lm... yes checking for g77... /usr/local/gnu/bin/g77 checking for fort77... (cached) /usr/local/gnu/bin/g77 checking for

I have downloaded the source code for Linux. the ./configure procedure can find gcc but cannot find f77 or f2c I have looked for the above compiler with Test and installed all what pertains to Fortran. Still not even the man pages for f77 anf fc2 work >. Where is f77 and f2c with linux 10.3 ?? Thank you do much -- Maura E.M [[alternative HTML version deleted]]

I have R-0.62.3 and RedHat 5.0 with fort77. At the office R is running but when I install a package, eg. 'akima' I get a message make: f77: Command not found 'R INSTALL library' does not accept fort77, but R installation checks f77/g77/fort77. Is there an easy way to edit some file and replace f77/g77 with fort77? At home I have the same R and Linux versions, but when

Last Friday my computer monitor was messed up by on-line patches update. I had to reinstall everything from the o.s. and all applications on top of it. I have downloaded R source from the official site. I have uncompressed the archive and ran the configure as root in /usr/local/bin. The configuration procedure dies writing: *configure: error: Neither an F77 compiler nor f2c found * but actually

Hello, I use Gentoo and I can't get R 2.0.1 to compile. I used the portage system, Gentoo's source package sytem, and after it uncompresses the source to R, it says that I don't have a fortran compiler. It told me to use f77 flag and re-emerge gcc, which I did with the f77 and fortran flags, but it still won't compile. Does anyone have any ideas? I suspect that gcc has changed

Hello List, Knowing I would eventually need to ask for help on the list, I've held off my thanks and congratulations on the 1.+ releases of R. I am amazed at the dedication of the R-core team, and do add my applause and thanks. I've had a compile problem with the latest version which has not occurred before. I'm compiling under: platform sparc-sun-solaris2.6 arch sparc

Hello, I'd like to ask whether there is a prefered linux distribution for use with R (Suse, Redhat, Debian) and what fortran compiler is recommended (f77 or f2c)?

dear wizards: FYI: gentoo is a linux meta distribution, which compiles all packages. Once running, gentoo is stable on most applications. (it has some problems with system tools, such as grub.) the compiler is gcc 3.3.3. I do not expect anyone to track down for me why R fails on the gentoo amd64+gcc3.3.3 system, but I thought that it would be good to put it on the record to save

Hi, I was looking at configure.in for R-1.4.1 and in the case "${host_cpu}" in part under alpha CPU's, the switch of -mieee for g77 and -fpe3 otherwise is an OSF specific, not alpha specific issue. In particular, if someone used f2c-f77 (shell script which emulates a fortran compiler with f2c and the c compiler), they'd get the broken -fpe3. I'd probably either test for

Hi - I'm trying to build R 1.6.1 on a Powerbook running Macintosh 10.2.2 with the most recent software update. The latest version of the developer tools is installed. I have also installed g77 and f2c from fink (the binary versions, using apt-get). ./configure fails with the following error: > checking for dummy main to link with Fortran 77 libraries... unknown > configure: error:

I'm not sure if this is the place to post this question, but, I am having trouble compiling the source code. I do have a suitable C compiler and f2c but I get this error when I run ./configure configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available Any ideas? Thanks.
