Problem installing aroma.affymetrix on Solaris 9 with R-2.6.2
This is the wrong list for questions about Bioconductor packages: please do study the posting guide (and no HTML mail, please). stdint.h is part of C99. My guess is that your unspecified compiler + obsolete OS is not C99 compliant. Since Solaris 8 has inttypes.h (which is supposed by POSIX to include stdint.h), it is a reasonable guess that you could might be able to replace stdint.h by inttypes.h (especially as R has been compiled on your OS and R uses inttypes.h as a fallback). When you find a solution, you should report it to the maintainer of the affyio package (see the posting guide).

Hi List, I'm trying to install aroma.affymetrix, which depend on many packages, affyio is one of them. The task is done on 32-bit Linux without problem. The same task was done on Solaris 9 with R-2.5.1 without problem. Following is the error message when installation affyio. I did try to put a file stdint.h I got from the web in the path, but got more error messages.
