Specfically, lines 26-29: @for d in "$(R_MODULES)"; do \ (cd $${d} && $(MAKE) $@) || exit 1; \ done Here, R_MODULES is blank, resulting in the "cd" command transferring to the user's home directory, where, of course, no Makefile is found resulting in the error above. Work-around appears to be to simply disable loop if R_MODULES is empty. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
