Hi all, I downloaded a R package (supclust, not from CRAN) in my directory, then type: markov:/home/pingzhao> R CMD INSTALL supclust_1.1.tar.gz -l ~/lib but met the following errors * Installing *source* package 'supclust' ... ** libs /usr/local/lib/R/bin/SHLIB: make: not found ERROR: compilation failed for package 'supclust' Does it mean the R has not properly installed? what are problems here??? Thanks, Pingzhao

You don't have the required build tools, in this case make. Did you build R on that machine, or was a pre-built binary installed? Dirk
Don't drink and derive. Alcohol and analysis don't mix.

It's saying that the "make" command was not found. You need standard development tools to install source packages. Duncan Murdoch
