Hi there,
I was trying to install a package in R, namely “hdf5r” (https://github.com/hhoeflin/hdf5r). However, upon installation I encountered an error.
checking for HDF5 libraries... x86_64-solus-linux-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option '-show'
Looking the the configure file of that package, it seems to be an issue with the h5cc command of the hdf5 package in Solus.
Running e.g. h5cc -show in Solus results in an error whereas running the same command in e.g. Xubuntu works just fine.
Output in Solus:
h5cc -show
/usr/h5cc
dir is /usr
x86_64-solus-linux-gcc: error: unrecognized command line option ‘-show’
Xubuntu:
max@max-VirtualBox:$ h5cc -show
gcc -I/usr/include/hdf5/serial -L/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hdf5/serial /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hdf5/serial/libhdf5_hl.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/hdf5/serial/libhdf5.a -lpthread -lsz -lz -ldl -lm -Wl,-rpath -Wl,/usr/lib/
I am not sure, why this is the case but it seems to prevent me from installing that urgently needed package in R.
Any help on this issue would be highly appreciated.
Thanks
max
