seems to be the current, I am correct ? Note that :
Well, those tools built 2.4.0 for me, but earlier versions of
mingw-cross5.tar.bz2 did not because bintools was too old. So assuming
you didn't get a cached older file, I don't understand.

However, I have use R-2.4.1 and everything seems ok.
Thanks.

There are two problems here:
1) your binutils is not current.
2) your R is not current.
Updating either will solve this, but please update both.
Almost up-to-date cross-compilers are (as ever) available from
http://www.stats.ox.ac.uk/pub/Rtools/
(If you want to compile R-devel you will need to update the mingw, which
can be done from the i386 distribution. I will rebuild the cross-compilers
in due course.)

Hello list,
I would like to cross-compile R packages using R 2.4.0. I am working on
Linux Debian and cross-compiled (windows binaries) without problems with
older R version.
I have used the doc of Yan and Rossini in the contributed section of the
R documentation (same version of MinGW...).
When I try to cross-compile R (make R), the procedure stopped and returns
:

****************************************
I have read (http://www.murdoch-sutherland.com/Rtools/) that a bug
exists for ld version 2.16.91 20050827 and that Prof Ripley produced a
patched version. It seems that my problem is also related to ld (and I
have the same version). So I wonder if the same bug could be responsible
of the error in the cross-compiler.
Two questions:
- Are they other people which have the same problem when cross-compiling
R on Linux
- Is it possible that the problem is related to ld. If yes, is it
possible to obtain a patched version ?
Thanks in advance.
Sincerely,
