Hello everybody,
when performing "R CMD check" on my package that contains the sourcecode
of a third party C++ library, I get a warning telling me to avoid the
usage of makefile extensions. Before going ahead and trying to temper
with the library's build-process, I just wanted to ask how severe of a
problem makefile extensions are. Is there a "gradient" i.e. makefile
extensions can be tolerated to a certain degree and some are worse than
others, or are they such a problem with regards to portability that you
shouldn't use them at all?
With kind regards
Nils L?schow
