I am trying to make R-1.8.1 on (SunOS shell1 5.8 Generic_108528-15 sun4u sparc SUNW,UltraAX-i2). I did ./configure make Configure output seems ok. The make proceeds until the following line appears, repeated indefinitely (until I break):
./config.status: ./confstat28489-19881/subs.frag: cannot overwrite existing file I suspect that this may involve write permissions (and maybe the umask set in config.status). I am attempting the make in a directory where I have rwx permission. (I've also tried this with "./configure --prefix=/home/me" with the same result. I don't have superuser permission on the machine in question and am planning to install R to my home directory.) Any suggestions? Thank you very much.
