[R] Invoking R on BSD

2008-01-08 Thread Kitty Lee
Thanks to Saeed Abu Nimeh. I used pkg_add to install R package on 4.4BSD. 

My directory now has the following:

BUILDDIRMakefrag.cc_lo  config.log  m4  tests
MakeconfMakefrag.cxxconfig.status   po  tools
MakefileR-2.6.1 doc roots
Makefile.bakR-2.6.1.tar.gz  etc share
Makefrag.cc SVN-REVISIONlibtool src


But the make check shows errors:

 [2:32pm][~]  make check 
`Makedeps' is up to date.
make: don't know how to make ../../bin/exec/R. Stop
*** Error code 2

Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests/Examples.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests.
*** Error code 1

Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests.
*** Error code 1


How to fix this error? And then what are the steps involved to invoke R?

I know eventually I need to use commands like R CMD. But what are the steps 
before this?

(Sorry, I have not done anything before on unix and am trying to figure things 
out from bits and pieces off the internet. I would truly appreciate any help or 
hint!)

when you do pkg_add -r R it should install R and you will not need to 
run make. To invoke R, you just need to type R in your prompt. Here is 
what I have on my FreeBSD:

FreeBSD 7.0-PRERELEASE (GENERIC2) #0: Sat Jan  5 21:27:47 CST 2008
