Hmm, you are using a csh-like shell. Just replace the "export" statement below with the equivalent setenv statement: setenv PATH ${HOME}/mynewbin:${PATH} The PATH trick is also a useful thing to do if you have say, multiple java JDK's, or other things. > Hin-Tak Leung schrieb: >> Rainer Hurling wrote: >>> Thanks, Brian and Martin, >>> >>> I think you are both right, Matrix tries to use BSD make >>> (/usr/bin/make) on FreeBSD instead of GNU make (/usr/local/bin/gmake). >>> >>> Sorry, but I don't know how to persuade the configure script to use >>> gmake :-( >> >> easy - >> >> mkdir ~/mynewbin >> ln -s /usr/local/bin/gmake ~/mynewbin/make >> export PATH=${HOME}/mynewbin:${PATH} >> >> Then run "R CMD INSTALL ..." as you did. >> >> and afterwards, "rm -rf ~/mynewbin".
