similar to: Install R on Ubuntu with libcurl support

What do you have installed as far as libcurl goes? Would you mind listing your packages and greping for libcurl entries. Perhaps I need some libcurl debs installed when I install r-base?

Thanks for the advice. Going to look into this more this evening and hopefully get everything working. Thanks again!

The one strange thing I am now noticing is that precise does not have libcurl listed as a dependency. If you go to https://cran.r-project.org/bin/linux/ubuntu/precise/Packages and look for "libcurl" it is not listed. The other Ubuntu builds, such as trusty or wily do list it.

The distribution works with proper dependencies. When R is built with libcurl, the R package already depends on libcurl: edd at max:~$ dpkg -s r-base-core | grep curl Depends: zip, unzip, libpaper-utils, xdg-utils, libblas3

Dear all, I am trying to upgrade R on Debian 3.16.0-4-amd64, as the default R version is 3.1.1 (2014). When I try to run ./configure on R-3.3.3, I get an error message saying ... checking for curl-config... /usr/local/bin/curl-config checking libcurl version ... 7.53.1 checking curl/curl.h usability... yes checking curl/curl.h presence... yes checking for curl/curl.h... yes checking if libcurl

For precise, from which you should really upgrade, you need to look at the very `help(options)` I pointed you to and select _the external curl or wget_ as the method for `download.file()`. Dirk -- http://dirk.eddelbuettel.com | @eddelbuettel | edd at debian.org

Dear Dirk, Do you mean binaries for R-3.3.3? I could not find any link on the page you mention I downloaded R-3.3.3.tar.gz from https://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-3/ then ran ./configure I also tried ./configure --enable-R-shlib based on a suggestion found in http://jenzopr.github.io/bioinformatics/2016/05/03/r-wheezy-build.html Many thanks, Lucio On 4 April 2017 at 17:17, Dirk

Hi all, The following fails for me (on OS X, although I imagine it's the same on other platforms using libcurl): options(download.file.method = "libcurl") options(repos = c(CRAN = "https://cran.rstudio.com/", CRANextra = "http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/RWin")) install.packages("lattice") ## could be any package gives me: >

Dirk, ive changed the subject given the nature of the present debugging. Im aware i can extend extras from download.file to install.packages however im curious to know why libcurl in the R invocation does not honor the CA bundle on my system. how would I pass a CA bundle to install.packages? the function has numerous arguments before the extras are taken.

Hi Martin, Indeed it does (and I should have confirmed myself with R-patched and R-devel before posting...) Thanks, and sorry for the noise.

Indeed, the only correct behavior is to turn the protocol error code into an R exception. When the server returns a status

Dear R devel, Is libcurl support required to run R.devel, or is it optional? I'm compiling R.devel on an older Debian machine that only has libcurl version 7.21.0 The R news file says " Sun, 25 Jan 2015 CHANGES IN R-devel NEW FEATURES Optional use of ?libcurl? (version 7.28.0 from Oct 2012 or later) for Internet access (including on Windows): ... CHANGES IN R-devel

One of the curl maintainers has pointed me to this bug report on Launchpad that may affect r-base users: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/curl/+bug/1754294 The issue is that ubuntu now ships both libcurl3 (gnutls, nss) as well as libcurl4 (openssl) which cannot be installed concurrently. Because r-base-core depends on libcurl4, it will conflict with any other packages depending on

Hi there, I got a question regarding compiling the icecast2-server: When I'm executing the 'sh autogen.sh' command and is checking for libraries, it says that it didn't find the 'libcurl' library, although I have the curl-rpm installed that includes the libcurl (located in /usr/lib). I compiled icecast2 anyway and tried running it. If I try to get the status.xsl

I am utterly stumped. I need libcurl.so.3 for CentOS 6.4. I have Googled everything and I have been going all over the Internet looking for a solution. I give up; I need help. The error message I get when I try to run a program is: error while loading shared libraries: libcurl.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory I have: Package libcurl-7.19.7-36.el6_4.i686 already

R-devel r69197 returns appropriate errors for the cases below; I know of a few rough edges - ftp error codes are not reported correctly - download.file creates destfile before discovering that http fails, leaving an empty file on disk and am happy to hear of more.

Hi All, I think there is a memory error in the libcurl connection code that typically happens when libcurl reads big chunks of data. This potentially affects all code that use url() with the libcurl download method, which is the default in most builds. In practice it tends to happen more with HTTP/2 and if the connection is wrapped into a gzcon(). macOS Catalina has a libcurl build with HTTP/2
