Thanks for your reply.

here is my path:
I:<DIR>\Rtools\bin;
i:<DIR>\Rtools\perl\bin;
I:<DIR>\Rtools\MinGW\bin;
I:<DIR>\R-2.8.1\bin;

You shouldn't have "<DIR>" in there. Just put in whatever the directory actually is.

I downloaded my R source from the cran.

the command I executed from within R-2.8.1\src\gnuwin32 is:

'make all recommended'

I'd love to just install the binary, but I'm trying to compile rpy2 which
complains about R not being compiled as a library.

thanks for whatever help you can provide.

lemme clarify... the last line is:

 hello,
I'm trying compile R-2.8.1.  I've got Rtools installed, paths setup,
etc...
the compile progress up to a point and then complains:

 ... DLL made

 collecting R files
 preparing package methods for lazy loading
 dumping R code in package `methods'
initializing class and method definitions ...done
make[4]: *** No rule to make target `inst/BasicClasses.R', needed by

any help would be appreciated.

I've never seen that particular error, but it smells like a problem with
your path:  if some R tool is supposed to return a directory name, but yours
returns <DIR>, you might see something like that.

If you need more help, please post more details:  what is your path, where
did you get the R sources, how are you starting the build?
