Description Maikol 2013-06-13 07:47:25 CEST

Hello, 

I downloaded RStudio (a cool gui for R) from http://download1.rstudio.org/rstudio-0.97.551-i686.rpm

I installed R-base from the Control Center, and trying to install RStudio this happens:

# urpmi rstudio-0.97.551-i686.rpm 
A requested package cannot be installed:
rstudio-0.97.551-1.i686 (due to unsatisfied libRblas.so)
Continue installation anyway? (Y/n) n

Googling a little, I saw that other people have had the same issue

https://forums.mageia.org/en/viewtopic.php?f=7&t=4870&p=34081&hilit=rstudio#p34081

http://support.rstudio.org/help/discussions/problems/2576-rstudio-on-mageia

In the latter link, it's suggested compile R from sources with some option called --enable-R-shlib. 

I'm not an expert compiling packages and people in scientific areas need very much these packages. 

So, I kindly ask if the Mageia team could backport a functional R-base to Mageia 3 in order to install RStudio correctly. 

Best.

Mageia 3 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status 4 months ago.
http://blog.mageia.org/en/2014/11/26/lets-say-goodbye-to-mageia-3/ 

Mageia 3 is no longer maintained, which means that it will not receive any further security or bug fix updates. As a result we are closing this bug.

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of Mageia
please feel free to click on "Version" change it against that version of Mageia
and reopen this bug.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
