Package: r-base-core Version: 2.3.1 Severity: normal when running build alone (perl) it doesn't work either. this looks like a strange perl bug: perl says it opens package/DESCRIPTION when in fact it tries to open /package...
any ideas to find the problem welcome (i already removed all of perl + R and re-installed the packages). export PERLLIB=/usr/share/R/perl export R_HOME=/usr/lib/R perl -d /usr/lib/R/bin/build boot Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.28 Editor support available.
