Re: IRIX and R-0.65.1

Hi,

I am using the script Marcus posted in March 1999.
(see
http://www.santafe.edu/projects/swarm/archive/list-archive.9903/0105.html)
{
the relevant portion given below:
Here's how I build R on Solaris. 

#!/bin/sh
#srcdir=$S/R-devel-sfi-1999-02-07
srcdir=$S/R-devel
ldflags="-L$P/data/hdf5/lib"
FC="/opt/egcs/bin/g77 $ldflags" LDFLAGS=$ldflags CC=/opt/egcs/bin/gcc
CPPFLAGS="-I/opt/src/mgd/packages/data/hdf5/include -I/opt/gnu/include"
$srcdir/configure
--prefix=/opt/src/mgd/packages/data/R --srcdir=$srcdir
make 
}

The script was changed to point to the correct directories
for my machine.

The problem I am having is the following checks at the configure
stage cause fatal error.  

checking for ANSI C header files...
checking whether calloc is broken...
checking whether finite is broken...
checking whether log is broken...
checking whether compilers need -OPT:IEEE_NaN_inf=ON...
checking size of long... 

The checks cause it look at the /usr/lib32 directory and then I get 
the message that it cannot find libhdf5.so in that directory.

Something in the script above is causing it to look at the wrong
directory.  What should I change to make the fatal errors go away?
The quick and easy solution was to copy libhdf5.so from the hdf5
directory in /usr/lib32 directory.  But I think it is not the correct
solution.

Thanks,

Jayshree Sarma
