Dear R-help,

I just configured and installed R-1.8.1 according to the following

R is now configured for sparc-sun-solaris2.9

  Source directory:        .
  Installation directory:  /usr/local

  C compiler:        gcc -g -O2
  C++ compiler:      g++ -g -O2
  Fortran compiler:  g77 -g -O2

  Interfaces supported:     X11
  External libraries:       readline
  Additional capabilities:  bzip2, PCRE
  Options enabled:          R profiling
  Recommended packages:     yes

The make test failed in the internet package, but that is most likely due to the fact 
that I have to use a proxy.

When I ran a simple test in R, the following occurred

> x <- rnorm(500)
> plot(x)
> dev.print(pdf, file="blah.pdf")
  Error in PDF(file, old$family, old$encoding, old$bg, old$fg, width, 
height, :
                 unable to start device pdf
In addition: Warning message: problem
loading encoding file

So I can't produce PDF graphics (nor postscript, it also failed for 
dev.copy2eps). 
What am I doing wrong in the configuration/installation?

cheers...
