Hi, dear list.

I found that hclust causes segfault in R 3.0.1, here is the code after
starting R --vanilla:

test.data <- function(dim, num, seed=17) {
    set.seed(seed)
    matrix(rnorm(dim * num), nrow=num)
}
m <- test.data(120, 45)
library(rpud)                  # load rpud with rpudplus
d <- rpuDist(m)                # Euclidean distance
system.time(hclust(d))


And I have the following error message:
*** glibc detected *** /usr/lib/R/bin/exec/R: malloc(): memory corruption:
0x0000000002d64b80 ***

On the other hand, if I use dist() instead of rpuDist(), everything will be
fine, I notice there is some difference between the results returned by
these two functions:


R>str(d)
Class 'dist'  atomic [1:990] 13.8 12.9 15 15.5 17.1 ...
  ..- attr(*, "Size")= int 45
  ..- attr(*, "Diag")= logi FALSE
  ..- attr(*, "Upper")= logi FALSE
  ..- attr(*, "method")= chr "euclidean"
  ..- attr(*, "call")= language dist(x = m)
R>str(d1)
Class 'dist'  atomic [1:990] 13.8 12.9 15 15.5 17.1 ...
  ..- attr(*, "Csingle")= logi TRUE
  ..- attr(*, "Size")= int 45
  ..- attr(*, "Diag")= logi FALSE
  ..- attr(*, "Upper")= logi FALSE
  ..- attr(*, "method")= chr "euclidean"
  ..- attr(*, "call")= language rpuDist(points = m)
