Dear All,

we're trying to implement R on the IBM p690 cluster "Jump" at the research centre in Jülich, Germany (c.f. http://www.fz-juelich.de/nic/Supercomputer/computer-e.html)
using the most recent version of R (2.1.0) and precisly following the installation instructions.

I don't think there are precise installation instructions for AIX 5.2.0.
You should be aware that AIX is a very peculiar OS, and only experience with it is relevant. You seem to be missing a library containing those .foo entry points, but this is a module and modern OSes do not require all symbols to satisfied in a module (nor do they require import lists).


You should also be aware that R has beta-test periods for new versions, and nothing was heard from any AIX user during that for 2.1.0. So it must have worked smoothly for all of them (if there are any left).


After ./configure we get the final message: ---------------- R is now configured for powerpc-ibm-aix5.2.0.0

Before bugging the administiors in Jülich, we would like to ask the R consortium: Are there any related experiences from people who worked on the implementation of R on different platforms?

Thanks for help
