Hello there, After checking through the mailing-list archive, I couldn't find a solution to my problem. I installed ROOT v5.34 under my local directory in Fedora16 OS, then tested. It runs OK. Then I tried to install xps via biocLite("xps", type="source"), and got error message as "..................... Generating dictionary xpsDict.cxx... rootcint: error while loading shared libraries: libCint.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory make: *** [xpsDict.cxx] Error 127 ERROR: compilation failed for package ‘xps’ " > sessionInfo() R version 2.15.0 (2012-03-30) Platform: x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu (64-bit) locale: [1] LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 LC_NUMERIC=C [3] LC_TIME=en_US.utf8 LC_COLLATE=en_US.utf8 [5] LC_MONETARY=en_US.utf8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8 [7] LC_PAPER=C LC_NAME=C [9] LC_ADDRESS=C LC_TELEPHONE=C [11] LC_MEASUREMENT=en_US.utf8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=C attached base packages: [1] stats graphics grDevices utils datasets methods base other attached packages: [1] BiocInstaller_1.4.7 loaded via a namespace (and not attached): [1] tools_2.15.0 Could someone drop some hints on how to solve this problem please?

Dear Binbin, The error message says that the ROOT library libCint.so cannot be found. Did you create a ".bashrc" file with the settings: export ROOTSYS=/root export PATH=$ROOTSYS/bin:$PATH export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$ROOTSYS/lib:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH Did you compile ROOT for 32bit or 64bit? For 64bit you would need to configure: ./configure linuxx8664gcc (see ./configure --help) Please note that the recommended ROOT version for R-2.15.x is root_v5.32.01. I did not yet test if root_v5.34 does work. If you still cannot install xps using biocLite() then I would download the source code and do: R64 CMD INSTALL xps_1.16.0.tar.gz (or: R64 CMD INSTALL -l <your path="" to="" packages=""> xps_1.16.0.tar.gz) Best regards, Christian _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._ C.h.r.i.s.t.i.a.n S.t.r.a.t.o.w.a V.i.e.n.n.a A.u.s.t.r.i.a e.m.a.i.l: cstrato at aon.at _._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._._ On 7/5/12 6:24 PM, Liu, Binbin wrote: > Hello there, > > After checking through the mailing-list archive, I couldn't find a solution to my problem. > > I installed ROOT v5.34 under my local directory in Fedora16 OS, then tested.
