Just some feedback for the record.

Since version R-devel_2009-01-20.tar.gz with Matrix_0.999375-18.tar.gz included I am able again to compile and install R on FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT out of the box.

Many thanks to Martin Maechler and Brian Ripley for the help and work,

Dear developers,

today I tried to build and install R-devel_2009-01-10 on FreeBSD 8.0-CURRENT (i386) for testing purposes.

All went well until compiling the now recommended (integrated) Matrix package. At this point the following break occured:

------------------------------------------------

------------------------------------------------


Please note, that on FreeBSD there is a BSD 'make' as default. If I want to use gmake instead, I explicitly have to set it. Unfortunately this does not work within building the whole R-devel system.

With R-2.8.1 I have no problems installing and using R. When I want to build the (external) Matrix package I have to set an environment variable to gmake, found at /usr/local/bin/gmake and all works well.


Now my question: Is it possible to change the configure/build of the integrated Matrix package on R-devel? For all other packages there is no need to do so (at least for FreeBSD ;-)

Please let me know if I can help.

Thanks in advance,
Rainer Hurling
