Hi guys, I am trying to compile a 64bit version of R 2.7.0 on AIX 5.3. And I am running into some troubles. I also try the latest version 2.7.1 and get the very similar errors. The machine info: ----------------------- $uname -srvp AIX 3 5 powerpc ---------------------- My configuration is this: ---------------------------------------------------------- ./configure \

Hi all, I met a problem with R-2.10.1 installation on AIX5.3.

I'm trying to build R 2.4.0 on an IBM P5-570 that's running AIX 5.3. I'm using xlc 7.0, xlc++ 7.0 and xlf 9.1 in 32 bit mode (OBJECT_MODE is 32 in the build environment). The source is the patched version of 2.4.0, downloaded yesterday. Configure options were --prefix, --srcdir, --x-includes, --x-libraries, and --without-readline. Compiler flags were -O2. The make step fails with

Hi, folks. I was wondering if any of you could point me in the right direction. Using R 3.3.3 (and later), on an IBM Power LPAR, Red Hat 7 PPC64le, markdown build fails as below. > install.packages("markdown") trying URL 'https://cloud.r-project.org/src/contrib/markdown_0.8.tar.gz' Content type 'unknown' length 80583 bytes (78 KB)

Hi Ricky / AJ Progress of sorts. I got passed the last problem by looking at the makefiles but run in to the next one, see below. It has created files in /contrib/R-2.4.0. there is an " R " under /contrib/R-2.4.0/bin/R.

I'm trying to compile R 2.10.1 on AIX 5.3, and am getting the following error: Error in read.dcf(file = descfile) : Line starting 'Package: tools ...' is malformed!

Hi all, Yes, I know 5.3 is old, but it's a system I have to work with at present. I have the latest supported xlC + friends. gcc building is not an option on this system for other reasons. I have read the install instructions and set the env vars according to those and also am using the freeware iconv and other GNU tools where needed. Problem - the Matrix package hangs on installing.

Dear all, after trying to compile R on our IBM Power3/AIX 5.1 machine I've been able to run it correctly. First of all I would thank all who responded my mails. I explain here how I've done it: First of all, it seems that configure and some shared libraries of AIX does not work at the same time. I tried to configure & make with the following environment vars CC=xlc F77=xlf CCC=xlC

Hello, I'm trying to compile R (versions 1.6.0, 1.6.1, 1.6.2 and 1.7.0) on our IBM Power3 Machine for an external user. I always used to configure with ./configure --prefix=/scratch_tmp/harald/instala I've never achieved to compile 1.7.0 because it seems that a file called R.exp is missing (or maybe it's not well referenced on the makefile). Output of make: .... xlc_r

Hi, I hope someone has seen this problem before. I am trying to install the XML package from http://cran.r-project.org/src/contrib/XML_0.95-6.tar.gz.

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

Dear R-devel, I've made some potential extensions to writeForeignSAS in 'foreign' that I wanted to pass along if anyone is interested. I've attached the diff -u output against the version found in foreign_0.8-15 and an .R file with my changes. (In this .R file, the function is named writeForeignSAS7 to simplify testing/comparisons.) I've tried to alter the current

Hi, is there a way to retrieve the line number of where en error occurred when sourcing a file in a tryCatch statement? Is it stored somewhere accessible? It is not found in the error object. Consider the following code/output and note the difference in the traceback between source (has line number) and sys.source (has no line number). Thank you, Renaud ######## # code ######## codefile <-
