Hello guys:
I recently installed FC 5 linux and installed R from source. It installed
fine, but there was an oddity that I want to report. Although I used
./configure --prefix=/usr/local/R-2.3.0
make
it did not seem to recognize the prefix and went ahead and installed it in
the source director
Hi Marc:
Thanks for your reply. Yeah, I did do
make install
and also tried it with simply make (which is, I presume, enough to
produce the executable scripts for R).
Please keep me posted.
Best,
S.

Guys: Let's hold off on this one for a while. I just tried installing
mplayer and got the same oddity! It might be an FC5 installation issue - I
will get back to you on this one.
Thanks for your help folks.

make install

original mail, but I did try with that. I am simply reinstallin
