G'day all,
probably you have noticed this by now, but I thought I ought to report
it. :)
My scripts that update the SVN sources for R-patched and R-devel, run
`tools/rsync-recommended' (for both) and then install both these
versions from scratch failed this morning. Apparently the new version
of the recommended package `survival' depends on the recommended
package `Matrix', but the makefile does not ensure that Matrix is build
before survival. So my log files had entries:
[...]
ERROR: dependency ‘Matrix’ is not available for package ‘survival’
* removing ‘/opt/src/R-devel-build/library/survival’
Makefile:51: recipe for target 'survival.ts' failed
make[2]: *** [survival.ts] Error 1
make[2]: *** Waiting for unfinished jobs....
[...]
Presumably, in both branches, the files Makefile.in and Makefile.win in
src/library/Recommended have to be adapted to contain the following
line at the end among the "Hardcoded dependencies":
survival.ts: Matrix.ts
Cheers,
Berwin
