[Rcpp-devel] Unable to install RcppArmadillo from CRAN or from SVN archive on Ubuntu 10.10
OK, this is bizarre. I am able to install the RcppArmadillo package on my current setup provided that I turn on optimization in the call to g++ to compile RcppArmadillo.cpp. The only difference between the following two calls is the -O3 flag. (I haven't tried other levels of optimization yet but presumably it would work with -O and -O2). Compare the following bates at bates3:/tmp$ R CMD INSTALL RcppArmadillo_0.2.19.1.tar.gz * installing to library ?/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13? * installing *source* package ?RcppArmadillo? ... ** libs g++ -I/usr/share/R/include -I"/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/include" -I../inst/include -fpic -g -O3 -Wall -pipe -pedantic -c RcppArmadillo.cpp -o RcppArmadillo.o g++ -I/usr/share/R/include -I"/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/include" -I../inst/include -fpic -g -O3 -Wall -pipe -pedantic -c fastLm.cpp -o fastLm.o g++ -shared -o RcppArmadillo.so RcppArmadillo.o fastLm.o -L/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/lib -lRcpp -Wl,-rpath,/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/lib -llapack -lblas -lgfortran -lm -L/usr/lib64/R/lib -lR installing to /home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo/libs ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ... ** testing if installed package can be loaded * DONE (RcppArmadillo) bates at bates3:/tmp$ R CMD INSTALL RcppArmadillo_0.2.19.1.tar.gz * installing to library ?/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13? * installing *source* package ?RcppArmadillo? ... ** libs g++ -I/usr/share/R/include -I"/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/include" -I../inst/include -fpic -g -Wall -pipe -pedantic -c RcppArmadillo.cpp -o RcppArmadillo.o g++ -I/usr/share/R/include -I"/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/include" -I../inst/include -fpic -g -Wall -pipe -pedantic -c fastLm.cpp -o fastLm.o g++ -shared -o RcppArmadillo.so RcppArmadillo.o fastLm.o -L/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/lib -lRcpp -Wl,-rpath,/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/Rcpp/lib -llapack -lblas -lgfortran -lm -L/usr/lib64/R/lib -lR installing to /home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo/libs ** R ** inst ** preparing package for lazy loading ** help *** installing help indices ** building package indices ... ** testing if installed package can be loaded Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : unable to load shared object '/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo/libs/RcppArmadillo.so': /home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo/libs/RcppArmadillo.so: undefined symbol: _ZN4arma12arma_version5majorE Error: loading failed Execution halted ERROR: loading failed * removing ?/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo? * restoring previous ?/home/bates/R/x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu-library/2.13/RcppArmadillo?

Yes, well, this still does not explain why Doug gets the same error on Ubuntu. On Apr 29, 2011, at 07:23 , Conrad Sanderson wrote:

So it may be the LLVM g++ compiler (note that this is a developer version which has not been released yet, comes with Xcode 4.1) or an unfortunate interaction of that compiler with libraries in /usr/local.
I suggest filing a bug with Apple. ?The LLVM compiler is rather fresh, and it appears that it's still not ready for production use. Perhaps Apple is doing an elaborate public beta test with this developer version. ?If so, one has to wonder whether Apple internally lacks sufficiently varied test cases.
