Hello, I infer from your answer that piece of information which is most important for us now: That my configuration instructions for R should work (should be correct).
Given all these unspecified build-systems we have to fight (at least Gmp, Mpfr, Gcc with everything in it, R, and finally our own) one first wants to know where obvious errors are. Thanks! Once I know more (we are in the middle of it) I move to the devel-list. Oliver P.S. Currently it seems that the Gcc-build is not correct (still the same with 4.4.5), not propagating linker-information to the building of libraries (while the compiler-builds seem alright). > > Hint #1: Expect the process to be somewhat painful... > Hint #2: Study the configure script and config.log to the level where you can > reproduce the mixed C/Fortran code that it is trying to build and run and > with which commands it is trying to build it > Hint #3: Figure out what it really should have done to build such code > > An alternative hint is first to try setting up a very simple Fortran function > to, say, double a number, and a C main program that calls it.
