Maybe, but (AFAICS, see also below) no one submitted a patch to the
appropriate list (r-devel) nor even a 'wish' to R-bugs.
It's still present in R 2.8.0 beta (2008-10-07 r46631) on Mac OS X as you can
see
on the last build/check report for the xps package (Biosconductor):
Why are you using a test version over a week old? CRAN tests on the
current (when the test round started) version of R.
http://bioconductor.org/checkResults/2.3/bioc-LATEST/xps/pitt-buildsrc.html
xps has a Makefile in its src/ folder (with a "clean:" target) and 'make clean'
works fine for me if I run it manually from within the src/ folder on build
machine pitt. However, 'R CMD build' fails to clean the src/ folder because
it's apparently trying to access
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/etc/Makeconf
instead of
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Versions/2.8/Resources/etc/<arch>/Makeconf
Are there any chance that this could be addressed?
A chance, but not in code freeze for 2.8.0. (Your timing is the worse
possible.)
That's an unusual setup (developing on a system with sub-architectures).
If you submit a tested patch it is more likely to be 'addressed' once the
R-2-8-branch is open again.
Thanks in advance,
H.
