Hi, trying to install a package containing C code and requiring non-default configure argument settings the incantation (this has worked for R <= 2.8.1 on the same architectures)
R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="--with-opt1 --with-opt2" packname does always result in a warning Warning: unknown option '--with-opt2' and consequently the option is ignored. Reverting the order of options results in the now last option to be ignored. Alternative quoting has not provided a solution. Using R CMD INSTALL --configure-args=--with-opt1 --configure-args=--with-opt2 packname does provide a workaround, though. Is this the (new to me) and only intended way to provide more than one configure argument? I checked ?INSTALL and the referenced R-admin sec. 'Configuration variables' but still am not clear on this.
