Dear list, I'm trying to set up the development version of R (R-devel ) for testing some packages before submitting them to CRAN. I'm using Linux Mint 17.1 64-bit, which is an Ubuntu-based distro.
I followed the advice of Dirk on https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-debian/2012-August/001935.html Everything seems to run fine until .configure: R is now configured for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu Source directory: . Installation directory: /usr/local/lib/R-devel C compiler: ccache gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2 Fortran 77 compiler: gfortran -g -O2 C++ compiler: ccache g++ -g -O2 C++11 compiler: ccache g++ -std=c++11 -g -O2 Fortran 90/95 compiler: gfortran -g -O2 Obj-C compiler: Interfaces supported: X11, tcltk External libraries: readline, BLAS(generic), LAPACK(generic), curl Additional capabilities: PNG, JPEG, TIFF, NLS, cairo, ICU Options enabled: shared R library, R profiling Capabilities skipped: Options not enabled: shared BLAS, memory profiling Recommended packages: no However, when running make, I got an error saying: "/usr/bin/ld: ../appl/dchdc.o: relocation R_X86_64_32 against `.rodata' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC" I would highly appreciate any advice on how to solve this issue (or what should I recompile with -fPIC and how).
