Dear Professors Ripley and Murdoch:
Thanks very much for the suggestion to upgrade my Rtools. That fixed
the problem.
Another question: How do people typically debug problems linking to
legacy Fortran? For example, is there a reasonable (open source) debugger
for gfortran?
gdb, just as for C.
If you mean under Windows, then for a while gdb for MinGW was problematic
but latest builds seem to work with the current compilers.
In the DierckxSpline package, Sundar Dorai-Raj and I link R to
Fortran written by Paul Dierckx in 1979, last updated in 1987. We've
encountered segmentation errors killing R, which are difficult to diagnose.
Thanks again.

Hi, All:
How do I get information about the "R CMD check / build / install"
process, especially regarding what software to install and how to
configure it under Windows XP?
The 'R Installation and Adminstration' manual.
I ask, because "R CMD check" complained, "gfortran: Command not
found". I found 'gfortran-sjlj.exe' in 'C:\Program
Files\R\Rtools\MinGW\bin', which is in the path.
You need to update your Rtools.
This was on a package that I built successfully in January under R
2.6.2. Now with R 2.7.0, I can't get it to work.
Thanks for your help. Spencer Graves
