My Linux is pretty rusty, but I think the error message means what is says: you do not have readline header (*.h) and library files. They usually reside in readline-devel package if I remember correctly.
Hope this helps, Andy __________________________________ Andy Jaworski 518-1-01 Process Laboratory 3M Corporate Research Laboratory ----- E-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Tel: (651) 733-6092 Fax: (651) 736-3122 Stan Horwitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent by: To [EMAIL PROTECTED] r-help@r-project.org project.org cc Subject 05/27/2008 01:11 Re: [R] Assistance in installing R PM On May 27, 2008, at 12:45 PM, ctu wrote: > Hi, > I don't have any problem to install the R 2.7.0 in XP and windows > Vista. > I download R 2.7.0 from http://cran.cnr.berkeley.edu/ > You could try it again. > > If you still have a problem to install it.

The server is a 64-bit AMD box running Suse 9 Linux. I am the system administrator. I am trying to install the source code, but when I do the ./configure step, I get the following error as follows: configure: error: --with-readline=yes (default) and headers/libs are not available If anyone knows how to fix this issue, please let me know. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
