Hi,

I would like to have R the statistical computing language added to AL.
The source files can be downloaded from
http://cran.r-project.org/sources.html

Cheers

Hello.
I'm trying to make one for you.
we'll see

dp · 2004-04-30 23:51:18

i have tried this before ... you need gcc with f77 enabled :-(

oh yes. I just came to post that it needs fortran. but I saw you here

btw plz add [like I did]

make pdf || return 1

make prefix=$startdir/pkg/usr install-pdf

pdf documentation NEVER harmed anyone

thanx for the extensions ... this PKGBUILD is about a year old and originally on version 1.7.1 of R ... i just changed the version but left the other things as-is ... great that you extended them

additionally i need to say: i tried to compile R with F and the Intel compiler of fortran ... without success --- it needs either the f77 provided in gcc if you compile it with this language or g95 what is too experimental (R crashes/segfaults often because of this)

the only way i see is to enable f77 in gcc

any idea how to make a gcc-fortran pkg as adddion for gcc? i tried to compile first gcc without f77, then with f77 enabled and then take the diff for a pkg, but somehow did not success

kpiche · 2004-05-01 02:34:47

I built R using f2c. It has no build system so is a pain in the ass so I'll post the PKGBUILD when I get to work to save everyone the trouble.

For the R PKGBUILD I needed to modify the R_HOME_DIR path in the R script. Not sure if you need to as well...

kpiche · 2004-05-01 04:25:51

Another joy besides no proper build system for f2c is that it is "versionless". I'm going by the date in the changelog. Thank god for MD5s.

Here's my R - probably like everyone else's. I didn't bother with the PDFs since the HTML docs were built anyways.

The '--with-zlib ...' makes it link to the local libs and not compile its own bundled versions. The patch is required for the new X11.

I've built both and R works. Crank 'er up and try "demo(graphics)". HTH

zeppelin · 2004-05-01 10:43:04

kpiche can you provide the 2 pkgs that you built.
or dp will you do this or should I?

so we can plz arch_newb

dp · 2004-05-03 00:10:57

i added f2c to extra because it is needed by all things that need fortran

the R i think should go first to staging
(mainly because i run till now 1.7.1 on my machine and dont know 1.9.0 that good to be absolutely sure it works perfectly)

kpiche · 2004-05-03 02:26:12

Whoops! Can you remove them from incoming? :oops: Thanks!

arch_newb · 2004-05-06 14:02:25

Hi Guys,
thanks for all of ur help! I have read the posts and being a newb, I am still a little confused as to the status of R 1.9.0 . Is there a package or do I have to use one of the posted scripts to compile it (and if so which script?)? It sounds like I need to to compile R with gcc which has f77 enabled. I read the info on the links but I and not sure were I add the

--enable-languages=c,c++,f77,objc

Thanks again for the help.

Thanks again for the help.

f77 do not exist as a pkg - it is a language you can activate while making gcc

instead of f77, f2c is available (thanx to kpiche) and i added it to extra

i'm working on r to make it run with the pkgs in extra - it is not yet available in the repos (as i have some trouble compiling it)

Hi db,
thanks for the reply. I will wait for ur updated.

i'll work on it this afternoon and then will upload it to extra ... just want to make sure everything works ok - mainly because it is a big pkg and my upload-speed is not that fast (better check 2 times and upload once instead of uploading 2 times)

EDIT:

Warning message:
X11 used font size 8 when 7 was requested

i really like R :-)
ok, it's compiled the last time, and i run namcap a last time over it to check if the deps are still uptodate - then it will start uploading - 13MB ~= 2-3hours + 15min db-update - try getting it in 4 hours

r is in extra (i uploaded it form the university)

you're welcome - and besides: the heaviest part was to find a fortran-solution for archlinux (without messing with gcc): thanx kpiche for this a lot - great job!
