Hi again,
Building version 2.5.2 of Python from source (overwriting version
2.5.1) seems to have solved that problem alright. Rpy now seems to install,
but when I go to import it I'm faced witht he following error:
>>> from rpy import *
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/rpy.py", line 134, in
<module>
""" % RVERSION)
RuntimeError: /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/_rpy2062.so: undefined
symbol: PyUnicodeUCS4_AsASCIIString
RPy module can not be imported. Please check if your rpy
installation supports R 2.6.2. If you have multiple R versions
installed, you may need to set RHOME before importing rpy. For
example:
>>> from rpy_options import set_options
>>> set_options(RHOME='c:/progra~1/r/rw2011/')
>>> from rpy import *
Any ideas here would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
-Paul.
