I am trying to install the latest development version of R so as to be able to perform a package check according the rules specified for CRAN.
I performed the following steps: (1) Downloaded R-devel.tar.gz, dated 04-Mar-2016 03:21, from CRAN (2) Upacked. (3) Created directory "BldDir" next to the directory "R-devel". (4) Changed directories to BldDir. (5) Executed ../R-devel/configure --with-tcltk --with-cairo . (6) Executed make . (7) Executed sudo make install . I got the error messages: . . .
mkdir -p -- /usr/local/lib64/R/doc /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `FAQ': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `RESOURCES': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `NEWS': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `NEWS.pdf': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `NEWS.rds': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `NEWS': No such file or directory /usr/bin/install: cannot stat `NEWS.pdf': No such file or directory make[1]: *** [install-sources2] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/rolf/Desktop/R-dev-inst/BldDir/doc' make: *** [install] Error 1
Can someone/anyone tell me what I am missing or doing wrong?
