Dear list,
To operate R from python via a Python package rpy, R has to be
compiled with --enable-R-shlib. This is troublesome since none of the
binary distributions (except for windows?) is built with this option
so rpy users have to build R from source. This can be quite a
challenge, especially on platforms like macOSX.
Is it possible to provide both standard and shlib version of R by
default? This may not be too hard for R (link twice? I am not quite
sure.) but will benefit all applications that embed R.
Cheers,
Bo
