Hi,
After building R 2.14.1 on a Linux system (SUSE Linux Enterprise Server
11 (x86_64) ), I ran "make check" but it halted with the foll error:
Testing examples for package âbaseâ
Error: testing 'base' failed
Execution halted
I looked in <build dir>/test/Examples/base-Ex.Rout.fail and found the foll:
*******EXCERPT *****
...
> ### ------- Pickyness Flags : -----------------------------
...
> ## Don't show:
> m0 <- m <- structure(cbind(I=1, a=1:3), foo = "bar", class = "matrix")
> attributes(m0) <- rev(attributes(m))
> names(attributes(m0)) # 'dim' remains first, interestingly...
[1] "dim" "class" "foo" "dimnames"

> stopifnot(identical(0, -0), !identical(0, -0, num.eq=FALSE),
+ identical(NaN, -NaN), !identical(NaN, -NaN, single.NA=FALSE),
+ identical(m, m0), !identical(m, m0, attrib.as.set=FALSE) )
Error: !identical(0, -0, num.eq = FALSE) is not TRUE
Execution halted
******END OF EXCERPT******
I configured the R build with
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/packages/R/builds/2.14.1
--with-blas="-mkl=sequential" --with-lapack="-mkl=sequential" CC=icc
CFLAGS="-O3 -mkl=sequential" F77=ifort FFLAGS="-O3 -mkl=sequential"
CXX=icpc CXXFLAGS="-O3 -mkl=sequential" FC=ifort FCFLAGS="-O3
-mkl=sequential" LDFLAGS="-O3 -mkl=sequential"
I also tried building with O2 intead of O3, it gave the same error on
running "make check".
I had previously built R 2.11.1 similarly on the same system, and that
build passed all tests.
Is this error sth to be concerned with? If yes, how to fix it?
Many thanks in advance for the help
