[Rd] compile question

[Paul Grosu]

Hi Michael,

I experienced the same thing in the past.  After you get the R-3.2.2.tar.gz
and uncompress it, enter the R-3.2.2 directory and run the ./configure and
make from there, rather than a different one.

One other thing, you probably already did this, but just in case you might
want to double-check this section as well:

https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-admin.html#AIX

Hope it helps,
~p

So, modified the configure call, just incase, to be a bit more 'normal', but
still getting a failure with:

creating src/scripts/R.fe
make[3]: Entering directory '/data/prj/cran/64/R-devel/src/scripts'
mkdir -p -- ../../bin
make[3]: Leaving directory '/data/prj/cran/64/R-devel/src/scripts'

mkdir -p -- ../../include

make[1]: Leaving directory '/data/prj/cran/64/R-devel/src'
Makefile:60: recipe for target 'R' failed

Everything seems top be in place, but I do not know GNU autotools well
enough (I thought that is the origin of 'missing')
