Hi,
I got some errors when I attempted to build R (R-2.6.2) on my Solaris 9 box.
Can someone please provide some suggestion on what to do next?
The "configure" process was fine expect that I got some warning and a coredump
at the end.
What does that affect? Can I still build it?
./configure --prefix=/var/tmp/R/ --with-x=no
R is now configured for i386-pc-solaris2.9
Source directory: .
Installation directory: /var/tmp/R/
C compiler: gcc -g -O2
Fortran 77 compiler: g77 -g -O2
C++ compiler: g++ -g -O2
Fortran 90/95 compiler: g77 -g -O2
Obj-C compiler: -g -O2
Interfaces supported:
External libraries: readline
Additional capabilities: PNG, JPEG, iconv, MBCS, NLS
Options enabled: shared BLAS, R profiling, Java
Recommended packages: yes
configure: WARNING: you cannot build the object documentation system
configure: WARNING: I could not determine a browser
configure: WARNING: I could not determine a PDF viewer
./configure[64111]: 10817 Segmentation Fault(coredump)
I tried to build it anyway.
When I ran "make", I got an error: "../../../bin/R: bad substitution". What
does it mean? Does it look like a file permission problem?
What may go wrong here?
