Comment 3 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-28 02:53:05 UTC
not a dupe, this is because rpy-0.4.6 is only compatible with R-2.2.x.
Comment 4 BORGULYA Gábor 2006-07-28 04:22:54 UTC
Yes, I can confirm: rpy-0.4.6 did compile with R-2.2.1, but not with R-2.3.
Comment 5 Alastair Tse (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2006-07-28 05:17:45 UTC
Added rpy-0.99.2 and added a patch to fix their version check (#140842)
