I'd hope we can make some use of it. :-) http://nersp.osg.ufl.edu/~asr/media/R2spec-2.6.2-asr.src.rpm It depends now on python-cheetah (available from EPEL). Updated instructions: ---- for me to get the dependencies to build and install all (most) of ggplot2's broad depgraph, I must: yum install openmpi openmpi-devel openmpi-libs unixODBC-devel pvm tcl tcl-devel perl-DateManip perl-Date-Calc perl-version and then install from EPEL: environment-modules-3.2.6-4.el5.x86_64.rpm mpich2-1.1.1-1.el5.x86_64.rpm perl-IO-stringy-2.110-5.el5.noarch.rpm perl-Jcode-2.06-6.el5.noarch.rpm perl-OLE-Storage_Lite-0.14-9.el5.noarch.rpm perl-Parse-RecDescent-1.96-1.el5.noarch.rpm perl-Spreadsheet-WriteExcel-2.18-1.el5.noarch.rpm perl-Unicode-Map-0.112-12.el5.x86_64.rpm and then install from the graphviz people: graphviz-2.24.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm graphviz-devel-2.24.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm After installing the r2spec and the sysdeps, I made a temp directory, /var/tmp/Rbuild. I've got every script running happily from '.'; so there's no specialness about the tempdir any more. There, I ran (as root): [...] I heard the 'prefer not running as root' from earlier: since step N below is to install all these packages, is that really practical? In any case, the below can be run as a normal user, but the install steps below can't. # clear; R2spec -n "Allen S. Rout" -e "asr-hnhdhkBXzx8@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" -c --force --suggests --verbose --package ggplot2 This downloaded the CRAN-like lists of packages, downloaded source tarballs, and built (and copied) the specfiles and source. It also generated a few dot files, including the broad and narrow dependency graphs for the requested package. It also generates a 'buildorderlist'; a path through the depgraph such that each package is attempted only after its dependencies are processed. Then I stripped out the packages I knew would not complete their RPM build (mentioned below) # mv buildorderlist buildorderlist.orig # egrep -v "R-Rmpi|R-rsprng|R-multcomp|R-flexmix|R-RandomFields|R-MCMCpack|R-tcltk2" buildorderlist.orig > buildorderlist Then I ran /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/r2spec/buildfromlist.sh Is it evil for me to have put the script in there? This is certainly not general-purpose; putting it in the default bin would be silly. This will build and install all of the RPMs in the broad graph. ... If the individual builds work. This script uses '.' or environment variable 'RBUILDLOG' as a tempdir extensively; it drops a build log and an install log for every package addressed. That way when things eventually bust you can see where they went wrong. Then I ran /usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/r2spec/checkfromlist.sh which runs 'R CMD check' on every package, again logging, and summarizing success or failure in 'checkresults'. The check step took about 5.5 hours for me. ---- I still fail to build (and haven't investigated much yet): tcltk2: Fails to install: need tclsh8.3, not 8.4 ? multcomp: requires Survival >= 2.35.7 ? ... flexmix: dep on multcomp R-RandomFields, R-MCMCpack: uncaught debug files in the build tree.
