Hello folks
Earlier versions of jags and rjags installed on my system without any
difficulty, but I'm having trouble with jags version
4.3.0-1ubuntu2~ubuntu14.04.1~ppa1 (from Michael Rutter's R ppa) and
rjags version 4.6.
The call to install.packages() I always used successfully now produces
the error "cannot link to JAGS library in /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu."
shown below
I wondered if the location of jags headers, libraries, and modules om my
system might be in non-standard places, so after locating them (with
dpkg -L jags and /sbin/ldconfig -p | grep jags - ) I tried
install.packages("rjags",
configure.args="--with-jags-include=/usr/include/JAGS
--with-jags-lib=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu
--with-jags-modules=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/JAGS/modules-4")
which unfortunately produced the same result.
Any advice on how to sort this out would be appreciated. For example I
could always try compiling both jags and/or rjags and hardcoding the
location of jags libraries, but maybe there's a simpler way.
sessioninfo() and library() output are also shown below, but if other
information is required please let me know
Regards Ken
