Fail to install OpenMx on Ubuntu
AttachmentSize
Plain text icon config.txt5.24 KB

I am trying to install OpenMx under R 3.0.2 on Linux (Ubuntu) but without success and get the following error message, could you please help me understand what is the problem?

Have tried to run it both as root and as an ordinary user. With the same results during the build process.
The config.log file from the configure build script is attached.

Below you find the output from when I try to download, build and install OpenMx and if I run the configure script manually ( ./configure) the build process will result in the same error.

Hmm ... It's saying you don't

Hmm ... It's saying you don't have gcc. What happens when you type

sysadmin@cpf-calc1:/var/run$ gcc --version

in your terminal?

If you get nothing, or an error, you should probably

$ sudo apt-get update
$ sudo apt-get install build-essential

gcc is installed

Thanks, but that did not seem to be it. This is what comes out when typing sysadmin@cpf-calc1:/var/run$ gcc --version
