I want to know any experience compiling R in other LINUX distributions besides FEDORA (Red Hat) or Mandrake, for example in BSD, Debian, Gentoo, Slackware, vector LINUX, Knoppix, Yopper or CERN linux?
Hope this is not a "basic question"
Thank you for your help.
There is considerable experience compiling R under Debian Linux. Many of the developers use Debian and if you check the sources you will find that there is a debian directory in the official source distribution. The daily package checking is done on a system running Debian and there are dozens of R packages in the Debian distribution. See http://packages.qa.debian.org/r/r-base-core for a history of the uploads. The link to the buildd logs shows compilation of R under Debian on many different architectures.
Because Knoppix is derived from Debian and uses the Debian packaging system the compilation of R under Knoppix is essentially the same as under Debian. The Quantian distribution comes with R installed.
