Not sure whether this is a configure issue or an R one. It's only a minor issue, so this is really just FYI. The code in configure checks for the version of makeinfo by splitting the version string into a major and minor component. The tests on these assume they are numeric. RHAS2.1 shipped with a makeinfo version of "4.0b" The result is this: ===== checking whether makeinfo version is at least 4.7... ./configure: test: 0b: integer expression expected yes ===== ie: an error reported, but the test passed (4.0b > 4.7!!!). And there is no command line option to tell configure not to run the makeinfo commands (you can set r_cv_prog_makeinfo_v4=0 in your environment, but that isn't "right"). ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
