Using R-2.8.0 and R-2.8.1, I get behaviour like this:

LD_LIBRARY_PATH
"/home/hrapgc/local/R-2.9.1/lib:/usr/local/lib:/usr/lib/gcj-4.1.2"
I'm particularly dismayed by the fact that there are now only three
parts to LD_LIBRARY_PATH, and slightly mystified by the appearance of
/usr/lib/gcj-4.1.2 in place of /usr/lib/gcj-4.1.1. Maybe that's a red
herring since the former is a link to the latter.
I would appreciate help getting the rest of LD_LIBRARY_PATH back. I
set it in ~/.bash_profile in case that makes a difference to the
possible cause of the phenomenon.
$ uname -r
2.6.18-92.1.22.el5
The problem doesn't seem to arise with Fedora 8 nor with Mepis 6.5.
TIA
Patrick,
When I was using Fedora, several years ago I started to add any paths
that I needed for LD_LIBRARY_PATH into /etc/ld.so.conf. Then run 'sudo
ldconfig' to update the configuration.
I got bit by the same issue that you are seeing when using RODBC with
Oracle. I believe that it was Prof. Ripley who suggested that I use
the above approach and did not have any problems after that.
HTH,
Marc Schwartz
