Description Neil Darlow 2005-04-27 04:04:57 UTC

The directory /usr/lib/R/lib isn't put onto the LDPATH by an /etc/env.d/script. This leads to a missing dependency for libR.so:

ldd /usr/lib/R/bin/exec/R
        linux-gate.so.1 =>  (0xffffe000)
        libR.so => not found
        libc.so.6 => /lib/tls/libc.so.6 (0x43127000)
        /lib/ld-linux.so.2 (0x4310e000)

My /usr/lib/R/lib directory does contain libR.so. I first noticed this problem when trying to prelink my system.

Regards,
Neil Darlow

Silently fixing, no need to rebuild this beast just because of one non-critical
environment variable. Thanks for the hint.
