===== R.bug.report =============================================
Hello,
We're experiencing problems with R 1.0.1 on the HP-UX system.
The most serious one is that the random-number generators don't work:
R> runif(100)
Error in runif(100) : .Random.seed[0] is not a valid Normal type
R> .Random.seed
[1] 18851 3338 2439
Is this a subscripting error? Strange because building it on linux
works just fine.
Smaller errors I've noticed... The command-line history doesn't work.
It was built by our computer-support people, and I think they had
trouble with the libraries for that. (Contact is Ben Sherman,
bsherman@divms.uiowa.edu). Also help.start() generates a bunch of
error messages:
R> help.start()
If netscape is already running, it is *not* restarted,
and you must switch to its window.
Otherwise, be patient..

Any idea what the problems are?
