Compiling of readr 1.2.1 fails on (Ubuntu) linux multiple architecture R installation

[BerwinTurlach]

Hello all,

Today, update.packages() wanted to update readr on my machine from version 1.1.1 to 1.2.1. However the installation was not successful. I have an R installation with two architectures (32 bit and 64bit) and, apparently, for some reason a 64 bit dynamic object ended up in the 32 bit architecture so that at the end of the installation process the testing if installed package can be loaded failed. Complete output of the installation process is attached below.

Cheers,
Berwin

[tarmenic]

That is pretty much what is currently being discussed in Issue #919, I believe.

[jimhester]

I have never heard of anyone outside of WIndows having two architectures, I can look into fixing this but it may take some time.

[eddelbuettel]

@jimhester: See eg

• https://wiki.debian.org/Multiarch/HOWTO
• https://help.ubuntu.com/community/MultiArch
• https://wiki.ubuntu.com/MultiarchSpec

It's a pretty old initiative but it never really took off. But i386 and x86_64 can coexists easily and some distros stress it more than others. On my Ubuntu system I see /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu as well as /usr/lib32 even though I did not make a point about multiarch.

[eddelbuettel]

@BerwinTurlach The current readr fails to build / install as a standard Debian package, even in single arch. That risked blocking all of tidyverse so I cooked up a simple workaround essentialy by doing away with the 2nd library.

[jimhester]

@BerwinTurlach I think this would be fixed by the code in 922

Could you try installing it on your machine? I don't really have a easy way to test R installed with multiple architectures on linux

devtools::install_github("tidyverse/readr@922")

[BerwinTurlach]

@jimhester thank you for trying to fix this problem. The proposed changes do not seem to be sufficient, see attached output below.
Not sure whether it would be sufficient to change in the makefile the line

$(SHLIB): ../inst/rcon/librcon.so

to

$(SHLIB): ../inst/rcon$(R_ARCH)/librcon.so

My knowledge of writing makefiles is getting a bit rusty. :)

Thanks, sorry about that @BerwinTurlach, I have made this change, please try installing again.

[BerwinTurlach]

Thanks @jimhester, but problems seem to persist. As far as I can understand the output, when trying to create the target readr.so, the linker fails to find the library librcon.

[jimhester]

Sorry, I missed one more place to add R_ARCH, please try it again (hopefully this is the last time).

[BerwinTurlach]

@jimhester the compilation phase now works fine, but it still fails when R tests whether the package can be loaded. Perhaps the problem is now the one pointed out earlier, or it needs the fix suggested by @eddelbuettel.

G'day Dirk,

On Mon, 26 Nov 2018 18:18:43 -0800 Dirk Eddelbuettel ***@***.***> wrote: @BerwinTurlach The current `readr` fails to build / install as a standard Debian package, even in single arch. That risked blocking all of `tidyverse` so I cooked up a [simple workaround](https://salsa.debian.org/edd/r-cran-readr/blob/master/debian/patches/no_rcon_library) essentialy by doing away with the 2nd library.

Thank you for this information. I might give it a try when I have a bit more time on my hands and too many other packages insist on having a readr version >= 1.2.1. At the moment my system seems to work quite well with readr 1.1.1. :) Cheers, Berwin

[jimhester]

@BerwinTurlach if you could try installing from that branch one final time I believe this should now be fixed.

[BerwinTurlach]

@jimhester not sure what is happening now, but the result is:

But this is on my computer at work (were I first noticed the problem and which started this issue), previous attempts of installing tidyverse/readr@922 were made on my computer at home. Theoretically they have the same set-up (in terms of R), but the former is still running Ubuntu 16.04 while my home computer is already running Ubuntu 18.04.

Other repositories can be installed with devtools::install_github() on my work computer, so it does not seem to be a firewall (or similar) issue.

[BerwinTurlach]

@jimhester I am back home now and on my home machine it works. So the problems that I experienced this morning must be due to something specific to my work machine (will have to look into that one myself, but I plan to upgrade that machine soon to Ubuntu 18.04 anyway, hopefully that will make the problem go away). Thank you for all your help and work on this.

Ok, good to hear it now works! Thank you for your patience, I will likely release a new version of readr with these changes and those from #924 in the next few days.
