Did you look at the notes on MacOS X in the R-admin manual (as the INSTALL
file asks)? That would have told you why lapack failed, and I think you
should redo your build following the advice there.

Clearly I didn't read closely enough. Thanks for the reminder. The build and check completed successfully as a fully non-root build with this sequence:


Compile f2c and libf2c and put f2c, f2c.h and libf2c.a in $HOME/f2c. Run ranlib on libf2c.a

mkdir $HOME/f2c

mkdir ~/Rinstall
mv R-1.9.1.tgz Rinstall/

PATH=$PATH:$HOME/f2c  (So that configure can find the f2c executable)
export LDFLAGS=-L$HOME/f2c/
export CPPFLAGS=-I$HOME/f2c/

./configure --prefix=$HOME/Rinstall/ --with-blas='-framework vecLib' --with-lapack

make
make check
make install

are all successful.

Built in this way it has no problems with remote login on OS X. As I said I haven't found problems with remote log-in at at with 1.9.1

Thanks for the help everyone.

then did

./configure --prefix=$HOME/Rinstall/ --enable-R-framework=no
--with-x=no --with-lapack=no

Note

   --with-blas='-framework vecLib' --with-lapack

is `strongly recommended', and on some versions of MacOS X `appears to be
the only way to build R'.


and then

make

This basically worked but for some reason lapack was still trying to
build and that was failing, so I deleted it from the appropriate
makefile and the rest of the compile went fine. The lapack confusion
stopped some of the recommended modules from building but I didn't need
those (just sna which built fine from CRAN).
