Problem at installation: undefined symbol

[ulf85]

Hi,
I just wanted to install your wonderful mlr3verse package (from CRAN). But it stopped at the installation of mlr3misc with the following error I can not understand:

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘mlr3misc’ in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):
unable to load shared object '/applvg/os/usr/lib64/R/library/mlr3misc/libs/mlr3misc.so':
/applvg/os/usr/lib64/R/library/mlr3misc/libs/mlr3misc.so: undefined symbol: REAL_RO
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
ERROR: loading failed

Further, I get the following warnings:

I have a Redhat 6 Unix System with R 3.4.3 and my default gcc is a 4.8.5. I also tried with the newer version 4.9.4.
Are there any dependencies I can not see? Do I need a newer gcc?
The version of the package I got from CRAN is 0.9.0

Best
Ulf

Update: Package Version 0.8.0 (from CRAN archive) works.

Some preprocessor macros were missing for R versions prior to 3.5.0. I'll upload a fixed release now. Thanks for reporting.
