Hi All, I've tried to install these "multtest" and "preprocessCore" packages in Mac, but kept getting error messages. I tried to load the packages using 2 ways: 1. Installed from BioConductor (sources)
You should read the directions about how to start with BioConductor. Generally, you need to install BiocLite or some such. I forget the exact specifics but they are all in the accompanying documentation. And if you need to install from sources, see comment below.
2. And installed from BioConductor (binaries) Both ways, I got these error messages: For preprocessCore: ld: warning: directory '/usr/local/lib' following -L not found
ld: library not found for -lgfortran
This suggests that in addition to not reading the Posting Guide (where you are asked not to append unrelated questions to unrelated threads AND you are asked to post Mac problems to the Mac list) that you also failed to read the Mac sections of the Installation and Administration Guide where you would have learned that you need to install Xcode. Please study that document more thouroughly if you plan to install from sources ... although in this case that should not be necessary since the BioC repository has binaries.
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status make: *** [preprocessCore.so] Error 1 ERROR: compilation failed for package ?preprocessCore? * removing ?/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.10/Resources/ library/preprocessCore? * restoring previous ?/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.10/ Resources/library/preprocessCore? For multtest: ld: warning: directory '/usr/local/lib' following -L not found ** arch - x86_64 Looks like the error got to do with L drive, which I don't know how to fix it.
There is no "L drive". Macs don't refer to their drives or partitions by letters. The dash indicates that "L" argument to a system command was not found.
Please help. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated. Thank you very much, Nguyen
