It's not easy on Linux! There is a src/Makefile that ignores most of the info from how R was built, including CC, CFLAGS andlibrary pats such as /usr/local/lib64. And that's if you can get dieharder built: it gave me lots of errors before succeeding. I managed to build from the SRPM, but that installed with the include files without read permissions. But I've succeeded on Windows, and RDieHarder is now in the CRANextras collection (and so can be installed from the menus etc). I'll send Dirk separately notes on what I had to do to make it work. -- Brian D.
