I recently installed Mandrake 10.1 on my laptop, downloaded the latest version of R, compiled it and ran it.
To my surprise I discovered that the X11() command returned
an error to the effect that X was not available.
Examining R config.log I noticed that there were several
complaints about X and tcl in there. Basic include files, such as X11/X.h were not found.
I have previously compiled R-2.0.1 on a RedHat8 station and that one ran without any problems.
Does anyone know if there is an issue pertaining to X windows system that might make harder to compile R on mandrake than on redhat. Are there any specific rpms that need to be included before I can compile R so it includes X
I understand that Mandrake 10.1 uses Xorg instead of XFree86, but am under the impression that these are compatible.
