I initially thought this only was the case for me on R-devel, but also
just tested it on the current R-patched and R-2.1.1 (so perhaps this more
belongs on R-help, but ...).
I'm having an odd error with the makefiles in src/library/XXX while
building R. When it tries to create the 'po' directory, the Makefile
specifies:
@if test -d $(srcdir)/inst/po; then \
$(MKINSTALLDIRS) $(top_builddir)/library/$(pkg)/po; \
cp -pr $(srcdir)/inst/po/* $(top_builddir)/library/$(pkg)/po; \
find "$(top_builddir)/library/$(pkg)/po" -name .svn -type d
-prune \
-exec rm -rf \{\} \; 2>/dev/null; \
fi
However, mine dies with the error:
make[3]: Entering directory
`/mnt/disk2/home/jgentry/R-devel/src/library/base'
building package 'base'
all.R is unchanged
make[3]: *** [all] Error 127
make[3]: Leaving directory
`/mnt/disk2/home/jgentry/R-devel/src/library/base'
make[2]: *** [R] Error 1
If I put an echo in between the find and the 'fi', it will no longer throw
an error and go to the next package (where it will fail as I didn't put
the echo in there, presumably I could go and put an echo in all of the
base packages and my install would work though).
Has anyone seen this?
FWIW I'm using an AMD x86_64 machine, running RHEL WS 3.2
Thanks
