Hi, I"m a newbie on building R on Windows. I followed the instructions cited here, http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/ to build R-2.2.0. Everything works fine up till when package base needs to be compiled. here is the error message, ---------- Making package base ------------ adding build stamp to DESCRIPTION Error in library.dynam(lib, package, package.lib) : shared library 'tools' not found Execution halted make[4]: *** [frontmatter] Error 1 make[3]: *** [all] Error 2 make[2]: *** [pkg-base] Error 2 make[1]: *** [rpackage] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2 Has anyone seen this error message before? Where can I find shared library tools?
It was built at the bootstrapping phase, or should have been.
Is there something like config.log for Windows port? I didn't see anything suspcicious that helped me in finding where shared library tools should be built. There were couple of warning messges related to dlapack, but these are not related to tools, right? In file included from dlapack0.f:0: dlapack0.f:203: warning: 'ipv' might be used uninitialized in this function dlapack0.f:203: warning: 'jpv' might be used uninitialized in this function dlapack0.f:204: warning: 'smin' might be used uninitialized in this function Many Thanks, Jennifer
