[Bug 580756] New: Cantor is missing the R back-end
http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580756 http://bugzilla.novell.com/show_bug.cgi?id=580756#c0 Summary: Cantor is missing the R back-end Classification: openSUSE Product: openSUSE 11.1 Version: Final Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: openSUSE 11.1 Status: NEW Severity: Major Priority: P5 - None Component: KDE4 Applications AssignedTo: kde-maintainers@suse.de ReportedBy: kevin.coonan@gmail.com QAContact: qa@suse.de Found By: --- Blocker: --- User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux x86_64; en-US; rv:1.9.2.0) Gecko/20100115 SUSE/3.6.0-1.2 Firefox/3.6 The back-end configuration in Cantor does not include R. This has also been reported w/ Ubuntu systems. I have the current R-base and associated packages installed. Also, Cantor is designed to work w/ Sage. While many, if not most, of the components of Sage is available via the "usual and customary" scientific repos, I could not locate Sage via Webpin. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Start Cantor 2.Choose configure 3.Note missing back-end! Actual Results: n/a Expected Results: An option to use R as a backend. Since the reason many people are interested in Cantor is for a GUI for R, this is a pretty significant issue. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

I spoke to the developer of Cantor and he said that it is a compile-time dependency. Would it be possible to build against R so that it is available?
The only possibility to build against R is if R gets added to Factory. There is already someone building R on the OBS. Setting NEEDINFO to the maintainer of devel:languages:R @Detlef Steuer: Would you be interested to maintain R in Factory? -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

R-base lives in opensuse Factory since a few years! Do you mean something else? Detlef -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

Sorry, I do not see it if I do 'osc ls openSUSE:Factory | grep R-base'
Do you mean something else?
I mean making it available in the main Distribution. See e.g. http://lizards.opensuse.org/2010/03/23/how-to-add-new-packages-to-the-opensu... Sorry if I have overlooked it.
