    psychostats - 2007-07-04

    I installed version 0.4.7a from source on PCLinuxOS 2007 by following the recommended steps. Everything seemed to go properly, and the program will load without any apparent errors.  But it crashes if I try to do much of anything, like enter a simple command like a=5.

    If I try loading it from R using Konsole, the RKWard window does not come up, and I get the following output.

         > library(rkward)

         Attaching package: 'rkward'

                 The following object(s) are masked from package:grDevices :

                  x11 X11

                 The following object(s) are masked from package:base :

                  makeActiveBinding q quit require setwd Sys.setlocale

    I thought I had all the necessary packages installed, but now I wonder if I missed one or more.  As you might have guessed, I am in the early stages of learning Linux, so please bear with me.  :-)

      I'm sorry for the long delay, hope you're still around.

      This is not supposed to work. You always need to start the rkward binary.

      Hm. I don't have any good idea on what may be the problem. Are there any messages to the console?

      If you start with
      # rkward --debug-level 5
      Could you post the output of that (after the crash) somewhere? (This generates a whole lot of output, so the forum is not going to be the best place to post it. Maybe zip it up, and post to rkward-devel, instead).

      Thanks!
