To whom it may concern: My OS: CentOS 5.5 R version: R-2.11.1
My questions are as follows: First, I inputted commands: ----------------------------- # ./configure --enable-R-shlib # make # make check ----------------------------- Everything goes well until "make check". screen log: ************************************** make[1]: Entering directory `/tmp/R-2.11.1/tests' make[2]: Entering directory `/tmp/R-2.11.1/tests' make[3]: Entering directory `/tmp/R-2.11.1/tests/Examples' Collecting examples for package 'base' Extracting from parsed Rd's ........................................

I am also pretty interested in what "internal error 5" means?? Any idea of this error?? Thank you very much.
