Hi, One issue might be that your gcc is too new. A number of packages needed to be repaired to deal with gcc 4.3.1. If your gcc is new, you could try to port the modification Herve made to GeneR in the devel branch (or you could see if the devel version 2.11.1 installs in your R) best wishes Robert Pierre-Yves wrote: > Dear list, > > I am trying to install GeneR but it is facing a problem at compilation > time: > > + R CMD INSTALL GeneR -l > /var/tmp/R-GeneR-2.10.0-1.fc9-root-builder/usr/lib64/R/library > * Installing *source* package 'GeneR' ... > ** libs > g++ -m64 -I/usr/include/R -I/usr/local/include -fpic -O2 -g -pipe > -Wall -Wp,-D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=2 -fexceptions -fstack-protector > --param=ssp-buffer-size=4 -m64 -mtune=generic -c GeneR_glob.cc -o > GeneR_glob.o > In file included from GeneR_glob.cc:14: > GeneR_seq.h: In member function 'void GeneR_seq::setAccN(char*)': > GeneR_seq.h:152: error: 'strlen' was not declared in this scope > GeneR_seq.h:157: error: 'strncpy' was not declared in this scope > GeneR_glob.cc: In member function 'void GeneR_glob::getAccno(int, char*, > int*)': > GeneR_glob.cc:351: error: 'strncpy' was not declared in this scope > make: *** [GeneR_glob.o] Error 1 > ERROR: compilation failed for package 'GeneR' > ** Removing > '/var/tmp/R-GeneR-2.10.0-1.fc9-root- builder/usr/lib64/R/library/GeneR' > error: Bad exit status from /var/tmp/rpm-tmp.20062 (%install) > > > Has this error been already met ?
