From the Bioconductor 'devel' (3.13, used with R-devel) 'landing page' for rtracklayer
https://bioconductor.org/packages/devel/rtracklayer The 'build' badge is red; clicking on it shows a build system problem with rtracklayer on Windows. Scrolling on the landing page to the bottom shows Source Package rtracklayer_1.51.5.tar.gz Windows Binary macOS 10.13 (High Sierra) rtracklayer_1.51.5.tgz Source Repository On 4/7/21, 6:32 AM, "R-package-devel on behalf of Gordon Brown" <r-package-devel-boun...@r-project.org on behalf of gordon.br...@cruk.cam.ac.uk> wrote: Hi, Rosario, The message is telling you that you need to install the development header files for glibc on your computer. This is a set of files that are needed for building some kinds of software, but are not installed by default. Are you working on some sort of Linux machine? On Centos 8, the relevant package to install is called "glibc-headers". On Ubuntu 20.04 it's "libc6-dev". You'd need to run a command in the shell, something like: Centos: > sudo dnf install glibc-headers or > sudo yum install glibc-headers Ubuntu/Debian: > sudo apt install libc6-dev If it's Windows or Mac, I can't help... If you don't have root access on your host, or the above doesn't make sense to you, you will need to talk to whoever administers your computing environment, asking them to install the relevant package. Hope this helps. - Gord On 20210407, 11:03, "R-package-devel on behalf of rosario.avo...@unina.it" <r-package-devel-boun...@r-project.org on behalf of rosario.avo...@unina.it> wrote: Hi everyone, I hope this is the right e-mail I should have used; this is the first time that I ask for help with R! Yesterday, I installed the devel version of R (4.1) as I need to use a package (RiboDiPa) which only works for this version. The package requires, among the others, the package "rtracklayer". Since yesterday I am struggling trying to install rtracklayer for devel version without success. Below you can find the final message I got before the installation stops. Any idea of what might be the reason why I cannot install rtracklayer? ucsc/udc.c:46:10: fatal error: sys/mman.h: No such file or directory #include <sys/mman.h> ^~~~~~~~~~~~ compilation terminated. make: *** [https://linkprotect.cudasvc.com/url?a=https%3a%2f%2fMakevars.win%3a16&c=E,1,aB4mtmdcaXh3y_rFcDWiXKtEvYZoLA3GcTOtz2EAwNVyTaBV0cLYVfIMvPNYj-c9QK7LiaHqut3FcMfCLlVShgqSAdXj_xGXP8nS49zX7vVKE9rNPhmLmWDTnyU,&typo=1: ucsc/udc.o] Error 1 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'rtracklayer' * removing 'C:/Users/Rosario/Documents/R/win-library/4.1/rtracklayer' If you need any other information please, do not hesitate to ask.
