Hello,
I'm attempting to build R on Solaris 64-bit using gcc4, and am running
into the following error:
ld.so.1: R: fatal: relocation error: R_AMD64_PC32: file
/home/chander.ganesan/src/r/R-2.15.0/lib/libR.so: symbol main: value
0x28001597b8c does not fit
I've noticed - from some lists, and a bug here
(http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/9040) that this isn't an
unexpected issue - but I'm wondering if anyone has a fix for it? If not,
would someone be willing to develop a permanent fix for it (which I
believe I could fund, within reason.)
Thank You
R's own documentation has had workarounds for some time: please study
the R-admin manual. I built R-patched using 4.7.0 this morning on both
Solaris 64-bit) platforms (x64 and Sparc).
You do not say what version of R you are trying: I vaguely recall an
improvement here since 2.15.0 so suggest you try R-patched (and read its
manual). It also looks as if you are building R as a shared library,
which is not the default and it might be better to try the defaults first.
