All, Apparently the attachment did not make it through the list serve. I am having difficulty installing R-2.4.1 on Mandriva Linux 2007 Discovery. Thanks to the help of Doug Bates I got further along the path (Thanks Doug!!). I now cannot figure out which line of code needs modified in order for configure to complete. Please see below for the last several lines of output. checking whether

I've built a 64bit version of R 1.9.1 on a solaris 2.9 sparc system. Everything seems quite functional, except that readline produces the following: > configure:21277: checking for rl_callback_read_char in -lreadline > configure:21307: cc -xarch=v9 -o conftest -xO5 -xlibmil -dalign > -I/usr/local/include -L/us > r/local/lib conftest.c -lreadline -ldl -ltermcap -lm >&5

Dear R-help, I'm running into some strange problem compiling R 1.6.2 on Mandrake Linux 9.0.

I'm just getting started with R, using it mainly for graphics. All of my graphs need to be laid out in landscape format. I've set the parameter fin to (11,8.5) as well as fiddling around with any other parameters that looked promising, but the graphics window always opens as a square, as well as my plot being square. (By the way, I'm on Windows 2000.) Now, I can physically drag the

We've recently "upgraded" a server to solaris 8, and in reinstalling R I've encountered a problem in getting it to recognize the readline library. I have installed readline in what I believe to be the "usual" place: /usr/local/lib with include files in /usr/local/include/readline. But ./configure produces: ragnar.econ.uiuc.edu# grep readline hout checking for

This question is about compiling R-1.6.2 from source on a Sparcstation-20 machine running Solaris 7, gcc-2.95.3 and readline-4.2 (both gcc and readline from sunfreeware.com). I searched the r-help archive and the FAQ. The errors seem to be related to the binary readline libraries, and I have /usr/local/lib/libreadline.a,libreadline.so@, and libreadline.so.4. The attached errors are from

Dear R users, I am trying to install R 1.7.1 on a sparc-sun-solaris2.8 system. although gnu readline is installed and works fine on the parent directory, R is not recognizing it.

Just a report for those who want to try this. (Executive summary: It eventually worked.) The RPM for Fedora Core 1 did not work because it wanted libtcl8.3.so and libtk8.3.so, while this distribution had 8.4 instead of 8.3. I didn't try making soft links, thus pretending that it had 8.3. (I'm planning to install the final version of Core 2 when it comes out soon. This is a computer I
