Hi there, ubuntu 18.04.2, trying to compile R-devel 3.6.0, svn 76155. I am having difficulty compiling R. I think I have pcre installed correctly:
OK~/Downloads/R-devel pcretest -C PCRE version 8.41 2017-07-05 Compiled with 8-bit support UTF-8 support No Unicode properties support No just-in-time compiler support Newline sequence is LF \R matches all Unicode newlines Internal link size = 2 POSIX malloc threshold = 10 Parentheses nest limit = 250 Default match limit = 10000000 Default recursion depth limit = 10000000 Match recursion uses stack OK~/Downloads/R-devel But ./configure gives me this: [snip] checking for pcre.h... yes checking pcre/pcre.h usability... no checking pcre/pcre.h presence... no checking for pcre/pcre.h... no checking if PCRE version >= 8.20, < 10.0 and has UTF-8 support... no checking whether PCRE support suffices... configure: error: pcre >= 8.20 library and headers are required OK~/Downloads/R-devel can anyone advise? hankin.ro...@gmail.com ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
