Hi all,

I try to compile my package kml and I get the message

Warning in read_symbols_from_dll(so,rarch):
this requires 'objdump.exe' to be on the PATH

I check 'Writing R Extensions' but I did not find any reference to this error. Does someone know how 
to fix that?

Thank you very much for your help.
Christophe

Yes: Put objdump.exe on the PATH, that executable is part of gcc and in 
its bin directoy.

Best,

[That will not be 'compiling': it may be from R CMD check, e.g. from 
wuth --as-cran in R-devel.]
Not quite: it is part of GNU Bintools, hence bundled with gcc in Rtools. 
  So is 'nm', which may appear in a similar message (and on Windows 
means 'nm.exe').
