Simon - which compiler)s) did you use: xlc and xlfortran, or gcc/gfortran? I have made some changes to configure(.ac) so maybe my problems are self-inflicted. But would be good to know what environment you are using. Thanks for looking - and

This seems to be a problem that goes back a long time - and I hope someone who understands what tre is suppossed to be doing will look at this. A short history of other people who have reported on this on different versions of AIX. I shall only add that I get the same results on AIX 5.3 TL7, AIX 6.1 TL9 and AIX 7.1 TL3. Basically, with settings that work for AIX and 32-bit - the only changes

Ok, found the problem - on platforms that support it TRE uses wint_t (from wchar.h) as its type for characters (tre_cint_t) which on AIX is *signed* int. TRE uses liberally conversions between int and tre_cint_t apparently assuming that the latter is unsigned so conversions back to int are suitable for comparisons etc. On other platforms wint_t is unsigned so it works. Manually defining tre_cint_t

I would be "pleased" if you would try packages - i.e., none of "Toolbox" or Perzl rpm's. The iconv I supply might not be working as is (I will need to install a new system to check). However, this is why I have been testing with R-3.2.3 - to side-step the system library dependencies. re: xz - I have "installp" version - and any of my packages should work

Hi all, With the bug in tre identified I am trying to move forward - one step at a time. As I am getting some errors that prevent make completing with version 3.2.3, and R-devel introduces new issues (that I will face when I get to them) I would appreciate some guidance with output of "make check" (of 3.1.3) and the final message I run into when trying to build 3.2.3. Maybe they

Michael, I got access to PDP AIX so I can try to replicate your problem. Can you, please, share exactly your setup - AIX version and well as how exactly you installed the compilers (=where from)? I can then try to replicate it. AFAICS there is no official binary for gfortran nor gcc 4.7 so it must be some 3rd party - which could also be a problem. Thanks, Simon On Dec 17, 2015, at 12:02 PM,

Presumably the file in question is one of Peter-Dalgaards-MacBook-Air:BUILD pd$ grep -r "^Package: tools" * library/tools/DESCRIPTION:Package: tools src/library/tools/DESCRIPTION:Package: tools so the first thing I'd do is to have a good look at those files and see if they got somehow corrupted. If they look sane, presumably the bit of code that checks it isn't... So that

Michael, thanks, I'll have a look once my PDP VMs are up again (later today). This may be a signedness issue although it's unclear why other platforms wouldn't be affected.

FWIW I was able to replicate the problem using AIX7.1 on Power8, R 3.2.3, vac/xlc 11.1, xlf 13.1 in 64-bit mode. Indeed, Peter's analysis is correct re_regexecb(&regline, line..) returns REG_NOMATCH even though the string is literally "Package: tools" - no special characters anywhere.
