Re: [R] Install RCurl in Linux

[Duncan Temple Lang]

Hi

If you are getting exactly the same errors, then it is probable
that your installation of curl-7.19.2 is not taking
effect and the configuration script is still finding the older
version.  So you may want to check the output
of
  curl-config --version
in the same  shell as you issue R CMD INSTALL.


If the new libcurl header files are being used, I doubt
you will get the same errors.  So we need to see those also
to be able to assist.

Thanks Prof. Ripley,

I installed the current version curl-7.19.2, still got the same problem.

I am installing RCurl_0.97-3 and my system is x86_64/CentOS 5.

Looking forward to more suggestions/ideas.

    It seems you need a later curl -- 7.15 is rather old (and I think
    incomplete as a version number) and 7.19.5 is current.

    It is helpful to tell us what version of packages (here RCurl) you are
    trying to use, as well as your precise OS.

    That should be part of the default paths.
