we need a few more lines. please also provide your emerge info
Comment 2 Danny van Dyk (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2005-04-03 15:56:56 UTC
I never experienced this problem on my box...
Further, this is no problem with compilation, but with generation of the
"help pages"...

Changing summary accordingly.

Sorry, i've been mistaken, it happens during creating the entire mgcv
library, BUT:

According to the Makefile.in, it fails during creating a timestamp
(.ts files are the timestamps for the .tgz files). I guess this is a
problem with your setup. Is your pc's clock set to the correct time?
Do you still have enough free hdd space? I don't think this is a BUG.
Comment 4 Sebastian Spaeth 2005-04-04 03:01:54 UTC
OK, here comes some more info.
I had the same problem with R-2.0 earlier. R-1.9.1(?) worked and installed just fine on the same box.

I admit, it was my optimization hunger. With these CFLAGS (taken from the AMD optimization guide somewhere) it failed:
CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -ffast-math -mfpmath=sse -ftracer -fomit-frame-pointer -funswitch-loops -pipe"

I used CFLAGS="-march=athlon64 -O2 -pipe" and R installation went smoothly.

So safe CFLAGS make it work. My bad. Please close this (or consider filtering some CFLAGS).
