I am trying to install two R packages to produce cartograms like in the work of Gastner and Newman: http://www.pnas.org/content/101/20/7499.full.pdf
but I have a problem installing Rcartogram and rdyncall packages. Both are not available in CRAN and have to be installed from archivea and produce errors: > install.packages("C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/*Rcartogram*_0.2-2.tar.gz", > repos = NULL, type = "source") Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Milena/Documents/R/win-library/3.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) * installing *source* package 'Rcartogram' ... ********************************************** WARNING: this package has a configure script It probably needs manual configuration ********************************************** ** libs *** arch - i386 Warning: running command 'make -f "Makevars" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/etc/i386/Makeconf" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/share/make/winshlib.mk" SHLIB="Rcartogram.dll" OBJECTS="Rcart.o cart.o"' had status 127 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'Rcartogram' * removing 'C:/Users/Milena/Documents/R/win-library/3.2/Rcartogram' Warning in install.packages : running command '"C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/bin/x64/R" CMD INSTALL -l "C:\Users\Milena\Documents\R\win-library\3.2" "C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/Rcartogram_0.2-2.tar.gz"' had status 1 Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/Rcartogram_0.2-2.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status > install.packages("C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/*rdyncall*_0.7.5.tar.gz", > repos = NULL, type = "source") Installing package into ‘C:/Users/Milena/Documents/R/win-library/3.2’ (as ‘lib’ is unspecified) * installing *source* package 'rdyncall' ... ** package 'rdyncall' successfully unpacked and MD5 sums checked ** libs *** arch - i386 Warning: running command 'make -f "Makevars.win" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/etc/i386/Makeconf" -f "C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/share/make/winshlib.mk" SHLIB="rdyncall.dll" OBJECTS="rcallback.o rdyncall.o rdynload.o rpack.o rpackage.o rutils.o rutils_float.o rutils_str.o"' had status 127 ERROR: compilation failed for package 'rdyncall' * removing 'C:/Users/Milena/Documents/R/win-library/3.2/rdyncall' Warning in install.packages : running command '"C:/PROGRA~1/R/R-3.2.0/bin/x64/R" CMD INSTALL -l "C:\Users\Milena\Documents\R\win-library\3.2" "C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/rdyncall_0.7.5.tar.gz"' had status 1 Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘C:/Users/Milena/Downloads/rdyncall_0.7.5.tar.gz’ had non-zero exit status *rdyncall* finally loaded on a machine of a friend but not on mine, is there something wrong with my installation? following are my sessionInfo() R version 3.2.0 (2015-04-16) Platform: *x86_64-w64-mingw32/x64 (64-bit)* Running under: *Windows 8 x64 (build 9200) * locale: [1] LC_COLLATE=English_United Kingdom.1252 LC_CTYPE=English_United Kingdom.1252 LC_MONETARY=English_United Kingdom.1252 LC_NUMERIC=C [5] LC_TIME=English_United Kingdom.1252 attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] sp_1.1-1 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_3.2.0 grid_3.2.0 lattice_0.20-31 -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/Rcartogram-package-error-message-tp4710313.html Sent from the R devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-devel@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-devel
