Dear list,
I've just upgraded to Fedora Core 2 and seeing as there wasn't an rpm for this OS on CRAN yet I thought it was about time I had a go at compiling R myself. Having run into the X11 problem I switched to trying to install R-patched. I followed the instructions in the R Installation & Admin manual to download the sources of the Recommended packages and place the files in R_HOME/src/library/Recommended. ./configure worked fine so I progressed to make, which has hit upon this error when the process arrived at the Recommended packages:
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/gavin/tmp/R-patched/src/library'
make[2]: Entering directory `/home/gavin/tmp/R-patched/src/library'

make[1]: *** [recommended-packages] Error 2
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/gavin/tmp/R-patched/src/library/Recommended'
make: *** [stamp-recommended] Error 2
Being a relative newbie to Linux I have no-idea how to continue to solve this issue :-(
The only difference I can see between the /src/library/Recommended directories of R-1.9.0 and R-patched is that in R-1.9.0 it contains links to each of the tar.gz (excluding the version info) as well as the tar.gz themselves for each of the packages. Is this in some way related to my problem?
If anyone can help me solve this issue I'd be most grateful.
Thanks in advance,
