similar to: Error in making R-1.6.2.

I have just tried to update the version of R on our system, and when I did ``make'', I got the following error message: ===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+===+=== gcc -I. -I../../src/include -I../../src/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -c platform.c -o platform.o In file included from /usr/include/netinet/in.h:41, from

This is a follow-up to a message I posted yesterday concerning building R-1.6.2. After a deafening silence regarding that first message I decided to be fool-hardy and just comment out the line that seemed to be giving trouble in the file /usr/include/sys/stream.h. This worked for a while, but soon another error resulted:

I'm experiencing a new and annoying phenomenon which seems to consist of an unfortunate interaction between R-1.7.0 and netscape version 7. When I invoke help.start(), a netscape window duly appears with the browser pointed at the file .../R/doc/html/index.html as one would hope and expect. However if I then ask for help on a function, e.g. > help(glm) the help does NOT get displayed

I mis-spoke. It seems I had two collections of functions in the same directory. One by Colin Goodall, and one by David Scott (I have no record of where he is/was located). It is the *latter* collection that does all its work from within Fortran. I'll have another look at what Colin Goodall actually wrote to see if it could be useful to guarav. cheers, Rolf Turner rolf at

I've built R functions to ``effect'' a particular distribution, and would like to find out if that distribution is already ``known'' by an existing name. (I.e. suppose it were called the ``Melvin'' distribution --- I've built dmelvin, pmelvin, qmelvin, and rmelvin as it were, but I need a real name to substitute for melvin.) The distribution is really just a toy

Tried to do a plot just now and got an error: Error in text.default(2, 6, main, cex = cex) : X11 font -adobe-helvetica-%s-%s-*-*-%d-*-*-*-*-*-*-*, face 1 at size 16 could not be loaded This is reproducible (in my current environment) via: par(mfrow=c(2,2)) plot(1:10) text(2,6,"Oh, hell!",cex=2) This is of course not the real context in which the error originally manifested

I just tried to install R version 1.5.1, and it is failing ``make check'', as follows: $ make check `Makedeps' is up to date. running code in 'base-Ex.R' ...*** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `base-Ex.Rout' Current working directory /home1/faculty/rolf/Traal/Rtmp/R-1.5.1/tests/Examples *** Error code 1 make: Fatal error: Command failed for target

I am interested in whether the slopes in a linear model are different from 0. I.e. I would like to obtain the slope estimates, and their standard errors, ``relative to 0'' for each group, rather than relative to some baseline. Explicitly I would like to write/represent the model as y = a_i + b_i*x + E i = 1, ..., K, where x is a continuous variate and i indexes groups (levels of a

I have a Master's student working on a project which involves estimating parameters of a certain model via maximum likelihood, with the maximization being done via optim(). A phenomenon has occurred which I am at a loss to explain. If we use certain pairs of starting values for optim(), it simply returns those values as the ``optimal'' values, although they are definitely not

In checking over the solutions to some homework that I had assigned I observed the fact that in R (version 2.4.0) pnorm(-1.46) gives 0.07214504. The tables in the text book that I am using for the course give the probability as 0.0722. Fascinated, I scanned through 5 or 6 other text books (amongst the dozens of freebies from publishers that lurk on my shelf) and found that some agree with R

As I am new to dovecot and sieve I am really happy to get it working in a straight forward way. Thanks for the documentation to whom it concerns. Now I came to my limits with this failure messages in /home/rolf/.dovecot.sieve.log: sieve: info: started log at Jun 25 20:22:54. error: msgid=<1340648569.94073.YahooMailClassic at web190304.mail.sg3.yahoo.com>: failed to store into mailbox

I tried setting CFLAGS="-g -O" in config.site and got the same errors from running ``make check''. Then I tried setting CC=cc in config.site, and the damned thing failed again (but differently). Now at least ``!is.nan(var(1))'' is TRUE, as it should be. The problem comes from lapack. At the end of .../test/Examples/base-Ex.Rout.fail we find: > loc <-

Dear list, For a simple home-network i recently installed Debian Etch on an extra machine to act as server. It stores my mail, it acts as webserver, firewall, dns-, dhcp- and database-server. All of these services are running like a charm. The only thing left is to get samba running. Well, it is running, but to get it running how i want it to is a different matter i suppose, for i am quite

I've just installed version 1.4.0 of R, and am experiencing a puzzling phenomenon with the library() function. I have .lib.loc set as follows: > .lib.loc [1] "/usr/local/lib/R/library" "/home/faculty/rolf/Rlib" If I invoke > library(melvin) I get the error message Error in library(melvin) : There is no package called `melvin' but if I invoke >

I previously sent a cri de coeur about this problem to the r-help list but so far have not managed to extract a solution. So I am trying here. (Uh, Ubuntu *is* a "special instance" of Debian, isn't it?) The problem is that I cannot install rgdal, and I need it. Rather desperately. I do: install.packages("rgdal",lib="/home/rolf/Rlib") and get the error

I just (finally!!!) got R version 1.8.1 to configure and build under Solaris 9 (after much travail; there were funnies in my environment variables that mucked things up, but that's another story). Anyhow, when I ran ``make check'' I got an error right toward the end. Looking in the directory ``tests'' I found that the error was associated with the file reg-tests-3.R, and the

Dear R users, Biostatistics Denmark would like to annouce the availability of the new utility: sas2R --- a SAS to R parser. For almost 40 years SAS has been the primary tool for statisticians worldwide and its easy-to-learn syntax, unsurpassed graphical system, powerful macro language and recent graphical user interfaces have made SAS the number one statistical software choice for both beginners

Yesterday I downloaded R-2.2.0.tar.gz, gunzipped and untarred, and did the usual ./configure and make. Everything seemed to go smoothly until it got to the bit about installing recommended packages. It got past ``spatial'' but turned up a fatal error in respect of the ``boot'' package. Here is some of what appeared on the screen:
