Re: [igraph] build or R version fails in R 3.0.0

[Gábor Csárdi]

Hi Bob,

the XML package compiles and installs fine for me, just like igraph. So I think the problem might be what it described in XML's error message below:

"You are trying to use a version 2.* edition of libxml

but an incompatible library. The header files and library seem to be

mismatched. If you have specified LIBXML_INCDIR, make certain to also

specify an appropriate LIBXML_LIBDIR if the libxml2 library is not in the default

directories."

Maybe you installed another libxml2 version "by hand", in addition to the system provided one, and igraph and XML both find the new version's header and the old library or vice-versa.

Hi Gabor,

Same error with R CMD INSTALL ~/Downloads/igraph_nightly_0.6.5-3106-20130304.tar.gz, and with R CMD INSTALL ~/Downloads/igraph_0.6.5-1.tar.gz.

For XML I noticed that the Mac Binary lags the package:

Package source: XML_3.96-1.1.tar.gz

MacOS X binary: XML_3.95-0.2.tgz

Windows binary: XML_3.96-1.1.zip

And compiling the latest one there is  an error (below).  I shall contact the author about this. Many thanks.

Honestly, I have no idea what this is and just vague idea about rpath, but two things you could try quickly are 1) installing the released version of igraph, the same way, to see what happens, and 2) installing the XML package the same way, because that uses libxml2 as well. Just to try to see where exactly the problem is.

Hi Gábor,

I do not seem to have a problem with libxml (the compilation before worked fine with only 64 bit, and the error is the same not using the --no-multiarch flag).  I rather think form the message that igraph cannot find the location of libxml

ls -l /usr/lib/libxml*

-rwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel  2390032  3 Oct  2012 /usr/lib/libxml2.2.dylib

lrwxr-xr-x  1 root  wheel       15  3 Oct  2012 /usr/lib/libxml2.dylib -> libxml2.2.dylib

I recall that there were some issues reported in R help with some libraries getting installed (referenced?) in the wrong places in version 3.0.0.  I think this is the case:@rpath/libxml2.2.dylib does not seem to be found (what is @rpath?)

Sorry to bother you, but my knowledge of compilation is VERY limited and use version 0.7 since some of the functionality is not available in the official release.

KInd regards,

Bob

Hi Bob,

R CMD INSTALL igraph_nightly_0.6.5-3106-20130304.tar.gz

works fine for me on OS X 10.6.8. From R 3.0 R itself and all packages are 64 bit only, so you don't need the --no-multiarch flag. But you do need some 64 bit system libraries, like libxml2.2. 

So I guess that the problem is that libxml2.2 is 32-bit only on your system.
