R-devel does not compile under FreeBSD-7.0 CURRENT
As I said to you privately, I believe this to be a make issue: does GNU make work? We don't guarantee R to work with other makes (although it usually does). My guess is that the problem is the missing .m in the .SUFFIXES list in Makeconf.in, but Solaris make and GNU make see no problem and it looks like a make bug to me. I've added the suffix, so please try the current version. (This seems to be related to adding ObjC support which is apparently currently incomplete.)

After running ./configure script 'make' stops with the following error message: -------------------------- #make gcc -I. -I./src/include -I./src/include -I/usr/local/include -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -g -O2 -c -o .m.o gcc: No input files specified *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/local/R-devel. # -------------------------- I attached configure messages. If wanted I can send complete config.log (460 kByte). Are their any ideas about what is going wrong? If I could help with more information or with testing, please let me know. Thanks, Rainer Hurling
