Hi Marius, I have had this same problem several times. My workaround is to
1. download the source package 2. uncompress/unarchive the package 3. delete the 2 configure scripts 4. in src, rename Makevars.in Makevars 5. edit Makevars, replace @GSL_CFLAGS@ with the output of 'gsl-config —cflags’ and replace @GSL_LIBS@ with the output of ‘gsl-config —libs' 6. R CMD INSTALL the gsl directory Hope that works, Kjell > On Oct 21, 2015, at 4:12 PM, Marius Hofert <marius.hof...@uwaterloo.ca> wrote: > > On Wed, Oct 21, 2015 at 7:02 PM, Marius Hofert wrote: >> What fails?
