Bug Description

Binary package hint: rkward

Thanks for a wonderful GUI of R..Here is my problem: After I upgraded
( I do not remember which packages) the app is not working anymore. I
reinstalled, downgraded the app without any success.

This is the message after launched in a console:

/usr/bin/rkward.bin: error while loading shared libraries:
libRlapack.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
(I looked for the file in my file system and home and it is not present)

Platform

Ubuntu Hardy

rkward_0.4.9-2ubuntu0.1_i386.deb 02-May-2008 03:04 870K
rkward_0.5.0b-2_i386.deb 14-Jun-2008 10:05 927K

Thanks

This is not a bug, looks like you have messed up your system by mixing packages from our official repository and those from another repo (CRAN ?).
You should really not have a mixed R system, its the best recipe for this kind of problems, either stick fully to the hardy ones or to the ones from CRAN.

Even may be you are right, you answer doesn't help at all.
Here is how I solved my problem:
the library is located in
 /usr/lib/R/modules
 but is named lapack.so
next I copy the file in the same folder with the right name
sudo cp lapack.so libRlapack.so
make a symbolic link of this file and move to
/usr/lib
 voila it is working
thanks
