I have just installed the version of R for Linux Enterprise Server AS.
Is the `RedHat Linux Enterprise Server AS'? AFAIK, there is no version of R for any specific RHEL, but there are versions like 2.0.1.
If you installed an RPM, please tell us so, and which one from where.
When R is launched, I receive the following error message:
R: error while loading shared libraries: libg2c.so.o cannot open shared object file: no such file or directory
I very much suspect it is libg2c.so.0.
I have added the path to the library
It should be in /usr/lib if you have the prerequisites installed.
It may be that you have libg2c.so.0 there, linked to a non-existent file.
above to the /usr/etc/ld.so.conf file and then run ldconfig -v. The listing then shows that the libg2c.so.o is included in the path. Please advise.
You need to know where R's home is. Normally R RHOME will tell you, but that might give the same error. So use
grep '^R_HOME_DIR' `which R`
and then substitute it in
R CMD ldd R_HOME_DIR/bin/exec/R
My FC3 system with gcc-3.4.3 and readline-5.0 installed from source gives
gannet% R CMD ldd /usr/local/lib/R/bin/exec/R libblas.so.3 => /usr/lib/libblas.so.3 (0x0094e000) libg2c.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libg2c.so.0 (0xb7fc0000) libm.so.6 => /lib/tls/libm.so.6 (0x00b4f000) libgcc_s.so.1 => /usr/local/lib/libgcc_s.so.1 (0xb7fb7000) libreadline.so.5 => /usr/local/lib/libreadline.so.5 (0xb7f8d000) libdl.so.2 => /lib/libdl.so.2 (0x00948000) libncurses.so.5 => /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 (0x04c8b000) libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x0081c000) /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x00803000)
and then see if the place it resolves libg2c.so.0 to is an actual file.
