 Still the same problem after the changes
  I have downloaded R-2.3.0.tar.gz for Linux 64 bit processor
1.  tar -zxvf R-2.3.0.tar.gz
2. changed the directory to the newly created directory R-2.3.0
3. Typed ./configure
4. Typed make
5. Make check
6. make check-all
7. Typed make install
8. Typed  R

Fatal error: unable to open the base package
I get the error message. 


make[4]: *** No rule to make target `../../src/library/base/all.R', needed
by `base-Ex.Rout'.  Stop.

It's always a good idea to do

  make check

or even

  make check-all

before make install.  If the build does not pass the checks, there's no
point in installing.  (I've run into successful builds that failed the
checks several times before.)
