[R] R-gnome: no way to configure

[Agustin Lobo]

Ernesto,

I gave up by now. I did check the required packages  and it seems
I have all that is needed, but don't get the
R configuration program to find them.

In my last message to the list on this topic, I reproduced
the last output of configure:

"checking for gnome-config... (cached) no
checking for gnomeConf.sh file in /usr/local/lib... not found

I do have gnomeConf.sh, but in /opt/gnome/lib/ Nevertheless,
I do state 
--with-gnome-libs=/opt/gnome/lib"

It seems that I should go and manually
modify the configuration script to use the
/opt/gnome/lib directory instead of /usr/local/lib,
but I'm a bit reluctant to do it as my knowledge
on sys. admin. is very limited.

Also, Luke (who was able to compile R with gnome support
under Suse with no problem) told me the to do
the following:

> rpm -q -a --queryformat "%{NAME}\n" | sort

and compare with his own list, that he included as an attachment.
I can send it to you as well if you think that could be
useful.


Let me know if you manage to do it!
