Introduction to R

R is GNU S, a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics.

Dependencies

Required

• GMP
• MPFR
• GCC compiled to include F77 (<4.X.X) or gfortran (>=4.X.X). f2c won't work on a 64-bit arch.

Optional

• BLAS
• LAPACK
• TCL
• Tk
• X Window System
• Valgrind
• libpng
• libjpeg
• Readline
• Perl

Non-Multilib

Compile the package:

 CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" ./configure --prefix=/opt/R --libdir=/opt/R/lib \
 --enable-R-profiling --enable-R-shlib --enable-linux-lfs \
 --with-tcltk --with-tcl-config=/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh \
 --with-tk-config=/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh &&
 make

You must include CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" or R will have problems installing add-on packages. If you have a Pure 64 system, R will install it's libraries in /opt/R/lib64 by default. If you are using a system-wide BLAS and/or LAPACK library, add --with-blas and/or --with-lapack to the configure options.

Install the package:

 make install

Multilib

32Bit

Compile the package:

 CC="gcc ${BUILD32} CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" ./configure \
 --prefix=/opt/R --libdir=/opt/R/lib --enable-R-profiling \
 --enable-R-shlib --enable-linux-lfs --with-tcltk \
 --with-tcl-config=/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh \
 --with-tk-config=/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh &&
 make

You must include CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" or R will have problems installing add-on packages. If you are using a system-wide BLAS and/or LAPACK library, add --with-blas and/or --with-lapack to the configure options.

Install the package:

 make install

64Bit

Compile the package:

 CC="gcc ${BUILD64} CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" ./configure \
 --prefix=/opt/R --libdir=/opt/R/lib --enable-R-profiling \
 --enable-R-shlib --enable-linux-lfs --with-tcltk \
 --with-tcl-config=/usr/lib/tclConfig.sh \
 --with-tk-config=/usr/lib/tkConfig.sh &&
 make

You must include CFLAGS="-std=gnu99" or R will have problems installing add-on packages. If you are using a system-wide BLAS and/or LAPACK library, add --with-blas and/or --with-lapack to the configure options.

Install the package:

 make install

Documentation

Build and install the info pages for R:

 make install-info

Build and install the DVI documentation for R:

 make install-dvi

Build and install the PDF documentation for R:

 make install-pdf

Copy the R icons to /usr/share/pixmaps:

 cp -v doc/html/logo* /usr/share/pixmaps
