I am building from source on RHEL 4 and have run into a
problem while running "make check":
running code in 'lapack.R' ...make[3]: *** [lapack.Rout] Error 1
make[3]: Leaving directory `/opt/R/R-2.9.1/tests'
make[2]: *** [test-Specific] Error 2
make[2]: Leaving directory `/opt/R/R-2.9.1/tests'
make[1]: *** [test-all-basics] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/opt/R/R-2.9.1/tests'
make: *** [check] Error 2
I don't know the first thing about R as an application. The
"./configure" and "make" steps succeeded without error. I got
a warning about not being able to build "info" and "HTML"
documents. This is due to an older version (4.5) of makeinfo.
I asked, and our developers think they don't need "info" or
"HTML" documentation. They are okay with man pages. However,
there may be other problems from any older libraries or other
missing software.
I asked Kurt Hornik about this. Here are his comments:

Can anyone shed any light on this problem? Thanks in advance.
