Windows binary packages & R-Forge

[Yohan Chalabi]

Hi room,

There seems to be a problem with the Windows building machines of
R-Forge. All our packages with Fortran source code cannot be compiled
for Windows. The error in the log file is

make[3]: gfortran: Command not found

It seems that gfortran is not installed. Is there any plan to fix this
or am I doing something wrong on R-Forge?

thanks in advance for your advises.

regards,
Yohan

Please report this to R-forge, not here -- it is not an R development
issue (as e.g. R itself and the CRAN packages are being built).

It looks like they don't have the correct Rtools (27 or 28) installed.

You can use win-builder to get a Windows binary built.

Dear Yohan Chalabi,

This has been reported on R-Forge support forum on 29 April, 2008:

https://r-forge.r-project.org/tracker/index.php?func=detail&aid=139&group_id=34&atid=194

Thomas Petzold even posted there the probable cure. I hope the issue
will be solved some day soon.

cheers, jari oksanen
