Hi
An attempt to use R and Rtools in Wine fails, see the bug report to Wine:
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=34865
The people there say that Rtools uses an outdated Cygwin DLL with a
custom patch. Is there any chance we can upgrade our Cygwin DLL to a
supported upstream version? Thanks.
Rtools doesn't use any special Cygwin dlls. The one in the current
distribution is rather old, so if it doesn't work in Wine, just go to
the Cygwin site and install a newer Cygwin version. (Not sure if this
is easy in Wine, but you could do it on a Windows machine, and copy the
files over.)
