Hello, I am using R 2.14.2-1 under cygwin 1.7.12-1 in Windows 7
Professional Service Pack 1.
I am trying to install the knitr 0.4 package under R 2.14.2-1, and the
installation fails while installing the Rcpp 0.9.10 dependency.
The problem seems related to the missing execinfo.h (see code below).
Based on this webpage execinfo.h is not supported under cygwin and
several other platforms:
<http://www.gnu.org/savannah-checkouts/gnu/gnulib/manual/html_node/execinfo_002eh.html>
Do you have any recommendation on how to go around this problem or
where to post this issue?
Thanks,
Dario
