Speaking for myself, I certainly don't -- but even as a fairly long-time
Linux user it
would rarely occur to me to change the default locale set by my OS for the
purposes
of working with R (maybe it will now) ...

Re: [Rd] View() crashy on Ubuntu 9.04

2009-05-15 Thread Prof Brian Ripley


Thank you, included in R-patched and R-devel now.

BTW, it looks like the original problem is in MBCS locales only, which 
postdate the X11 View() code (but we had patches from Mr Nakama: 
input contexts are needed for entering CJK languages).


I do wonder sometimes if people who only work with data in ASCII or in 
a Western European language covered by Latin-1 realize the extent of 
the overhead that using a UTF-8 locale implies, especially for the X11 
functionality.  I still use a Latin-1 locale on Linux much of the 
time.  There are a lot of optimizations in the R code for ASCII-only 
data, but rather fewer in the I/O areas.

It is generated by XmbLookupString and Xutf8LookupString because
this doesn't make Input context of X11 when dataeditor is View.

static char *GetCharP(DEEvent * event)

   XmbLookupString(ioic, (XKeyEvent *)event, /* ioic at view

I think that this only has to limit GetCharP to isEditor=TRUE.

on my 8.04, r is reliable at crashing with, e.g.,

View(1)

with a subsequent attempt to move through the spreadsheet with an arrow
key.  this always causes a segfault.

Just type 'c' to continue; see the mail I must have sent essentially at the

indicative of anything.

  Actually, gdb seems not to want to debug this -- in either the

|I was going to try to run with debug turned on, but my installed
| version (2.9.0) doesn't have debugging symbols, and I'm having trouble

Good news: just run
 
 sudo apt-get install r-base-core-dbg

Most (library) packages (lib)foo now also ship (lib)foo-dbg which is provide
something close to pure magic -- just by installing these the already
instrumented gdb knows where to look for them.  See, no more recompiling.
Debug symbols appear out of thin air.  (I have used it only on Debian at home
when debugging R stuff, but it should really work the same for you there on
Ubuntu.)

| building the latest SVN version (./configure gives "checking for
| recommended packages... ls: cannot access
| ./src/library/Recommended/boot_*.tar.gz: No such file or directory")

It's moot as per the above but you need to either run the script to rsync
those in, or configure using 

--without-recommended-packages  

As for x11 instability, I happen to spend my daytime hours in from of
Cygwin/X connected to a few Ubuntu machines running R, and of late the
display has been unstable.  I tend to blame the other software first, but
indeed, the most recent change was probably R.  Did anybody experience that?

|Can anyone confirm?

Confirmed. Dies for me too, but from Debian and Ubuntu connected to the same
display (Ubuntu 9.04).
