Dear List,
I am having a problem triggered by having R-2.8
(R version 2.8.0 Patched (2008-11-15 r46953)) installed on Mac OS X
10.5.
The steps needed to generate the error are:
- install a binary distribution of R (default location)
- add R to the PATH
- install the python module pycairo
(http://www.cairographics.org/releases/pycairo-1.4.12.tar.gz)
That last step results in an error, and the error message point in the
direction of the R installation (see below):
Making install in cairo
test -z "/sw/lib/python2.5/site-packages/cairo" || .././install-sh -c -d
"/sw/lib/python2.5/site-packages/cairo"
/bin/sh ../libtool --mode=install
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/install -c '_cairo.la'
'/sw/lib/python2.5/site-packages/cairo/_cairo.la'
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/install -c .libs/_cairo.so
/sw/lib/python2.5/site-packages/cairo/_cairo.so
/Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/install: line 113:
/sh/dcf.sh: No such file or directory
make[2]: *** [install-pycairoexecLTLIBRARIES] Error 1
make[1]: *** [install-am] Error 2
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
Editing /Library/Frameworks/R.framework/Resources/bin/install, and
hard-code the right path to R_SHARE_DIR is obviously an option, but I
would like to hear that something more elegant is possible.
Laurent
