Hi All, I'm still having significantly difficulty getting the quantreg library running in R. I'm running R on MEPIS using the debs created by Dirk Eddelbuettel and placed in apt testing. When I try to install quantreg using the install.packages() function it fails with: /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lblas-3 Dirk was nice enough to send me a .deb for quantreg which installs without

I have been RTFM/doc/www, but I'm still lost. How does one tell R CMD INSTALL and R CMD check (both) that libraries are installed in non-usual places and so -I/APPS/include (or whatever) is necessary in CPPFLAGS and -L/APPS/lib (similarly) is necessary in LDFLAGS? I know I can hardwire them in pkg/src/Makevars, but this requires hand editing of that file by each installer (yuck!) rgentlem

The configure script runs fine, but when I compile todays alpha version of R-2.2.0 (R-alpha_2005-09-10_r35546.tar.gz) under FreeBSD 7.0-CURRENT from Sept. 4th I get the following output: ======================================================== [...] gcc -I../../src/extra/zlib -I../../src/extra/bzip2 -I../../src/extra/pcre -I. -I../../src/include -I../../src/include -I/usr/local/include

Dear People, I just went back to an old piece of C code. On trying to compile it with the R math standalone C library I got the following error. Can anyone enlighten me what I am doing wrong, if anything? C file (rr-sa.c) follows. I'm on Debian sarge. I'm running R version 1.8.1. Gcc is version 3.3.1. Thanks in advance. Faheem.

I've just tested R-alpha_2005-03-31.tar.gz. ./configure and make ran without any apparent errors, but make check failed: 58 (0) $ make check 2>&1 | tee make_check-logg make[1]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/R/R-alpha/tests' make[2]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/R/R-alpha/tests' make[3]: Entering directory `/usr/local/src/R/R-alpha/tests/Examples' make[4]:

Just in case anyone cares or is hitting the same problem: to install current mgcv (1.0-5) on 1.9.0 on Knoppix/Debian unstable I had to: # cd /usr/lib # ln -s /usr/lib/atlas/libblas.so.3 libblas-3.so # ln -s /usr/lib/atlas/liblapack.so.3 liblapack-3.so Otherwise compilation couldn't find -lblas-3 or -llapack-3 (I could have gotten away with the links in /usr/lib/atlas instead of /usr/lib,

Hi, all. I would like to use "pipe" to run a file through an awk program before scanning (to reduce the amount of data I'll be taking in). I would like to construct the awk program in R, and also to be able to set the awk variable FS, to accommodate different field separators in different files. My problem is that I keep getting the quotes escaped in the string that comes out, and

Dear all I have a character vector of dates something like: timevec<-c("15.5.2003 00:00", "15.5.2003 00:01", "15.5.2003 00:02", "15.5.2003 00:03","15.5.2003 00:04") and I would like to transform it to some more convenient date class. Is there a way how to do it directly without previous reformating to ISO like structure and adding a

But it is also useful, and used, which is why I hope that someone might apply the small change outlined below. ] The current version in CRAN's devel directories fails to build under R 1.6.1 (beta from Oct 27): chibud:/home/edd/RODBC# R CMD INSTALL . * Installing *source* package

Kurt, if you really want to find out what things an S help file can contain, you must learn some nroff/troff [ maybe use 'groff', the GNU one ]. As always, ultimate documentation is == source. The definition of the S help is in the two files $SPLUS/cmd/help.[nt]r where nr ^= nroff, i.e. ASCII output tr ^= troff i.e. printed output (e.g via Postscript conversion) help.tr

An user is using 2 displays and configured Gnome to "Static Workspaces only on primary display on" using gnome-tweak-tool Till 7.2 it was working as expected. After upgrading to 7.3 the content on the primary screen gets mirrored to all workspaces. When switching to "Static Workspaces only on primary display off" everything is working as expected on 7.3, too. Any ideas?
