Jeff, Thank you so much for responding. I am ready to do a lot of tweaking. From your message it looks like you are asking me to provide assignments on the same line as R CMD but precede the command. I am using bash and the usual thing would be to export those variables and then run R CMD. I tried that and configure ignores the variables. If you know where is the actual makefile then I could try to finish this without using R CMD. calling ./configure directly works ( R CMD INSTALL is the problem and I do not know how to look into that) Stephen C.

You might have to tweak it a bit, and also please send the full output of the command next time.
