Thanks to Saeed Abu Nimeh. I used pkg_add to install R package on 4.4BSD. My directory now has the following:
BUILDDIR Makefrag.cc_lo config.log m4 tests Makeconf Makefrag.cxx config.status po tools Makefile R-2.6.1 doc roots Makefile.bak R-2.6.1.tar.gz etc share Makefrag.cc SVN-REVISION libtool src But the make check shows errors: [2:32pm][~] >> make check `Makedeps' is up to date. make: don't know how to make ../../bin/exec/R. Stop *** Error code 2 Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests/Examples. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests. *** Error code 1 Stop in /usr/home/xxx/tests. *** Error code 1 How to fix this error? And then what are the steps involved to invoke R? I know eventually I need to use commands like R CMD. But what are the steps before this? (Sorry, I have not done anything before on unix and am trying to figure things out from bits and pieces off the internet. I would truly appreciate any help or hint!)
