Hello, I am trying to install R on Suse linux 10.1. To get configure to run correctly, I had to set FPICFLAGS=fPIC.
FPICFLAGS=-fPIC would have been correct (or -fpic). It is odd that FFLAGS has been set to -g and not '-g -O2': did you change that? And also odd that FC has been set to g77, which is not a Fortran 90/95 compiler.
Your problem was a direct result of your incorrect setting. However, I am rather surprised that any change was needed, as R's configure correctly finds FPICFLAGS on many Linux systems, and I am sure has in the past on Suse 10.1.
