Hi,
In the "R documentation and Administration" manual it is said that "The
configure or make variables |rdocdir| and |rsharedir| can be used to
install the system-independent doc and share directories to somewhere
other than |libdir|".
Then I've installed R v2.3.1 on a solaris platform (SunOS 5.9) with the
following commands :
> ./configure --prefix=/somewhere/stats rdocdir=/elsewhere/html
> make
> make install
It works well since documentation files are located in in
/elsewhere/html but when I use the html browser to compulse the
documentation, the links doesn't work.
In fact, all HREF balise are like "<a href="../../library/package/...">"
but the library directory is not installed to "../../library" it is
installed to "/somewhere/stats/R-2.3.1/library".
Is there a parameter that I've missed ?
Thank you for your help
Christine
