-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Fedora EPEL Update Notification FEDORA-EPEL-2016-367d157bc6 2016-07-06 03:36:59.522381 --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Name : R Product : Fedora EPEL 5 Version : 3.3.0 Release : 10.el5 URL : http://www.r-project.org Summary : A language for data analysis and graphics Description : This is a metapackage that provides both core R userspace and all R development components.
R is a language and environment for statistical computing and graphics. R is similar to the award-winning S system, which was developed at Bell Laboratories by John Chambers et al. It provides a wide variety of statistical and graphical techniques (linear and nonlinear modelling, statistical tests, time series analysis, classification, clustering, ...).
R is designed as a true computer language with control-flow constructions for iteration and alternation, and it allows users to add additional functionality by defining new functions. For computationally intensive tasks, C, C++ and Fortran code can be linked and called at run time.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Update Information:
Fix up the last few files where the zlibhack left noise. ---- Finally remove the last bits of the static library linking flags from the places that are inherited into CRAN. ---- Really really really fix the el5 build to not have random and incorrect linkflags that prevent CPAN modules from building. ---- Actually fix CRAN builds by removing invalid linkflags. ---- Fixup libR.pc to not point to a ton of unnecessary sharedlibs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- References:
