my gcc version is 4.8.1
I compiled and installed R 3.01 . then I tried to install rugarch package but it fails because it can't install depended package nloptr. I try to install nloptr individually with install.packages("nloptr"), i get a lot of deprecated messages and it fails. I attach log file . when I try to compile nlopt software it also gives similar messages.
The first (and only) error says: gcc -std=gnu99 -shared -L/usr/local/lib64 -o nloptr.so nloptr.o -lm nlopt-2.3/lib/libnlopt_cxx.a -lstdc++ -L/usr/local/lib64/R/lib -lR gcc: error: nlopt-2.3/lib/libnlopt_cxx.a: No such file or directory make: *** [nloptr.so] Error 1 ERROR: compilation failed for package ?nloptr? * removing ?/usr/local/lib64/R/library/nloptr? It's unclear how that could be "similar" to messages when attempting to install NLopt. There are a variety of build requirements for NLopt listed at the opens use repository: https://build.opensuse.org/package/view_file?file=nlopt.spec&package=nlopt&project=science&rev=284a615adbf4dd3fd550237da1a4e89b BuildRequires: gcc-c++ BuildRequires: hdf5-devel BuildRequires: octave-devel BuildRequires: pkgconfig BuildRequires: python-numpy-devel You nave not mentioned any of those (non-R) packages. It would seem that you should be seeking assistance in installing NLopt and that your provided material is not particularly on point of that issue. I suspect there is a mailing list for opensuse.
