Dear all,

I have the following problem:
My Bioconductor package xps requires both R and ROOT, whereby I compile ROOT usually from source. Until now this has not been a problem since I do all my development on Tiger. However, now I wanted to compile ROOT on Leopard but failed since my gfortran compiler is too old, see:
http://root.cern.ch/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=9721&sid=003b01ddb64f33dbe0c74651ee089c34

To solve the problem I should upgrade to the latest version coming with gcc-4.4 in Fink.

I would advise against that - using gcc from Fink usually calls for a disaster. The real solution is to fix their flags, but that's another story ...


Thus my question is:
Can I also use this version for R or do I need to use the version downloaded from att?


I would recommend using the Leopard gfortran 4.2.4 for Xcode 3.1.x from the Mac devel page
http://r.research.att.com/tools/
which I assume is what you meant by the latter.

Cheers,
Simon
