[R-pkg-devel] Errors in the pre-test after submitting the R package

Dear Uwe,


|One more question: Which version of fftw do you need for these symbols?


The system requirement for fftw is fftw-3.3.4 or above. I have tried to build that on fftw-3.3.4, as well as on fftw-3.3.6.


Thank you very much.


Best regards,

Senren

And I have tried to make use of the configure.ac. file in their source package to generate the configure script. I tried R CMD Check on my Mac, as well as on some machines running Linux. It seems that I could pass all the R CMD Checks on these Unix / Linux machines.

One more question: Which version of fftw do you need for these symbols?

Best,
