Hi First try updating glibc, and install spgrass6 again. If this does not work you could try export MALLOC_CHECK_=0 before you start R. The error might be related to "somewhere something" is trying to free memory that has already been unallocated. I don't know the details here, but it could be worth a try? Best wishes Torleif
Hi Torleif, thanks for the tips. I just updated my libc, and tried the MALLOC_CHECK trick-- neither fixed the problem. Still get the same error... Very strange, as I did not encounter this problem on a very similar machine. Could this have anything to do with configure arguments such as -march ? Cheers, Dylan

Hi,
Just upgraded to R 2.9.0 this morning, and tried to update all of my
packages. Everyhing seemed to work, except spgrass6. Manually removing
the old packing and installing fresh resulted in:

At this point R stops responding, and I have to issue a `kill -9` to make
regain control of the shell.
Any ideas?
