The same issue was already reported (and resolved) in the bug tracker earlier

issue was not tickled in eg all the Debian and Ubuntu builds we do) but you
here do not -- and hence got bitten by a Makefile typo.
Just fix it locally to
@rm -f $@
or use a system lzma. More details at

Thx. I made that change optimistically and it worked. Aren't thsee multiple Linux platforms a pain. BTW, Firefox claimed that the bugzilla URL was insecure: The owner of bugs.r-project.org has configured their website improperly. To protect your information from being stolen, Firefox has not connected to this website.
