Comment(by kcrisman):
This makes sense - the various R packages have heavy intertwined
dependencies as well as dependencies on outside programs, and some of them
won't build right on various machines (the Sage cluster, for instance,
doesn't have OpenGL so it can't build a mostly computational package,
depth, which requires rgl for displaying its computations).
Do you know how I might go about checking what SAGE_FORTRAN is on a Linux
machine? I mean other than
{{{
echo $SAGE_FORTRAN
}}}
which of course gives me nothing. Maybe the spkg-install needs to be even
better about finding the "right" Fortran? Currently it is
{{{
FC=sage_fortran; export FC
F77=sage_fortran; export F77
}}}
Also, make check just exits when something dies. It would be nice if
spkg-check actually returned a useful error message, but I have no idea
how to do that, as I am not a shell script guru.
