If you do not need to build the R shared library (which is needed if
|
|
|
|
|
you would like to call R functions from other applications), execute
|
|
|
|
|
the script as R_SHLIB=no ./R.SlackBuild
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
If you do not need to build the BLAS shared library (which is useful
|
|
|
|
|
for swapping default unaccelerated BLAS for an accelerated one),
|
|
|
|
|
execute the script as BLAS_SHLIB=no ./R.SlackBuild
