Please note that this message will contain a full copy of the comment thread, including the initial issue submission, for this request, not just the latest update. Category: Build Group: rpy Status: Open Resolution: None Priority: 5 Private: No Submitted By: Bill Barnard (bbarnard) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: setup.py fails with R 2.4.1 Initial Comment: Running setup.py yields the following error: [EMAIL PROTECTED] rpy-0.99.2 $ python setup.py build RHOMES= [] Setting RHOMES to ['/usr/lib/R'] Traceback (most recent call last): File "setup.py", line 80, in ? RVERSION = rpy_tools.get_R_VERSION(RHOME, force_exec=True) File "/home/billb/rpm/BUILD/rpy-0.99.2/rpy_tools.py", line 102, in get_R_VERSION raise RuntimeError("Couldn't obtain version number from output\n" RuntimeError: Couldn't obtain version number from output of `R --version'. This appears to be because the output of R --version has changed. It now outputs a string: R version 2.4.1 (2006-12-18) The fix is a minor change in rpy_tools.py in the get_R_VERSION() function (Line 100) Change: version = re.search("R +([0-9]\.[0-9]\.[0-9])", output) to: version = re.search("R +\D*([0-9]\.[0-9]\.[0-9])", output) You could use any other regexp besides \D* to match the string "version " which appears to be the new output portion. I have attached a patch with the proposed change. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- You can respond by visiting: https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=453021&aid=1629506&group_id=48422 ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys.
