I'm trying to build R 2.10.1 on a Sun Blade 1000 running Solaris 10
(03/05 release). I've installed iconv 1.13.1 and used:
CPPFLAGS="-I /export/home/drkirkby/sage-4.3.3.alpha0/local/include"
(which is where iconv is)
LDFLAGS=
-R/export/home/drkirkby/sage-4.3.3.alpha0/local/lib
-L/export/home/drkirkby/sage-4.3.3.alpha0/local/lib
The build of R fails as below.

Any ideas how I might solve this? I'm using gcc 4.4.3.

Someone emailed me privately about this matter, and suggested I tried the
configure option
--without-ICU
That did solve the problem, which means the ICU library
http://site.icu-project.org/ is not needed. I can't see this option documented
anywhere, so it would be helpful if put in the installation manual.
R is used as part of the Sage maths project. The ICU library issue is documented
on the Sage bug tracker, although some of the issues reported in this particular
ticket are not directly related to ICU library issue, but a bit of a clean-up of
how Sage uses R.
