Dear R list members I would be grateful if anyone could guide me to a solution for fixing my rimage package problem described below. I recently upgraded my machine from fedora core 3 to fedora core 6 and then upgraded R from version 2.3.1 from version 2.4.1. I then fired up R, tried to load the rimage library and received the following messages:
> library(rimage)
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
unable to load shared library
'/usr/lib/R/library/rimage/libs/rimage.so':
/usr/lib/R/library/rimage/libs/rimage.so: cannot restore segment prot
after reloc: Permission denied
Error in library(rimage) : .First.lib failed for 'rimage'
I had the same problem, but, unfortunately, a slightly different error message. My error message said:
library(rimage)
Error in dyn.load(x, as.logical(local), as.logical(now)) :
unable to load shared library
'/usr/lib/R/library/rimage/libs/rimage.so':
libfftw.so.2: cannot open shared object file: No such file or
directory
Error in library(rimage) : .First.lib failed for 'rimage'
So I took the hint and said
yum install libfftw.so.2
and this installed libfftw,
which cured the problem.
But you did not get this error message about libfftw.
