similar to: 'R CMD check' fails when suggested package is not available

Hi, I was trying to install the package Rmpi on a hpc cluster running SGE. The command, and the sessionInfo() is as follows: =========================================== > install.packages("Rmpi",dependencies=TRUE) also installing the dependency ‘rsprng’ trying URL ' http://www.ibiblio.org/pub/languages/R/CRAN/src/contrib/rsprng_1.0.tar.gz' Content type

I have a package that can use rmpi, but works fine without it. None of the automatic test code invokes rmpi functionality. (One test file illustrates how to use it, but has quit() as its first command.) What's the best way to handle this? In particular, what is the appropriate form for upload to CRAN? When I omitted rmpi from the DESCRITPION file R CMD check gave <quote> * checking

Hi, I am working on a 64-bit rocks cluster and am relatively new to the R package. I am trying to get Snow working with R and Rmpi and have run into the following issue. R is able to load the Rmpi and snow libraries and is able to run simple commands both interactively and batch as follows: -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I am running into the following issue that has been previously reported on the R-devel mailing list. The short version is that I'm writing a package for MPI, and I'd like to change CC and SHLIB_LD to "mpicc". Trying to change them in Makevars.in has no effect, because the values are clobbered by /etc/R/Makeconf. Will the following changes to Makeconf.in introduce any problems?

Hi. I am the maintainer of Rmpi package. Now I have a problem regarding the change of CHAR () in R 2.6.0. According to R 2.6.0 NEWS: ******* CHAR() now returns (const char *) since CHARSXPs should no longer be modified in place. This change allows compilers to warn or error about improper modification. Thanks to Herve Pages for the suggestion. ******* Unfortunately this

Many thanks to Dr Yu for updating Rmpi for R 2.6.0, and for starting to make the changes to support Open MPI. I have just built the updated Debian package of Rmpi (i.e. r-cran-rmpi) under R 2.6.0 but I cannot convince myself yet whether it works or not. Simple tests work. E.g. on my Debian testing box, with Rmpi installed directly using Open Mpi 1.2.3-2 (from Debian) and using 'r' from

Dear all, I'm trying to use a Markdown vignette with UTF-8 encoding. It compiles well when knitting the vignette in RStudio, but it fails to recognize the UTF-8 settings when building the source package. Can someone point out what I'm doing wrong? I tried to put the relevant information below. Best regards, Thierry Details: Using 64-bit R 3.1.2 with encoding = "native.enc"

Hi, I am using a cluster with LAM 7.1.3/MPI 2 and R 2.6.0. Rmpi version 0.5-5 is working very well. Now I have tested "Rmpi 0.5-6". During spawning the Rslaves I get an error: MPI_Error_string: error spawning process > sessionInfo() R version 2.6.0 (2007-10-03) x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu locale:

I am working on a SLES 10 cluster with R available on it. To better use my resources, I want to use Rmpi, but I am having a difficult time installing it. I have set the $R_LIBS variable correctly. The MPI libraries are available through the PGI compiler, but this R instance was compiled with GCC. The Rmpi package can be compiled and installed with %R CMD INSTALL Rmpi_0.5-5.tar.gz

Hello R-help! I am a systems administrator for the University of Southern California. I take care of it's general-purpose research cluster, and have recently been asked to provide access to a parallelized R platform.

Hi Folks, I've recently transitioned to Debian 8.0 and was having a hard time getting Rmpi to work.
