Bug #: 34865 Summary: Can't execute mingw toolchain provided by Rtools Product: Wine Version: 1.7.4 Platform: x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: mail@kirill-mueller.de Classification: Unclassified
I can't execute "R CMD INSTALL" on an installation of R + Rtools in Wine (latest version from PPA "ppa:ubuntu-wine/ppa"). A reproducible script and console output can be found here: https://gist.github.com/krlmlr/7333242 . The script will set and write to $WINEPREFIX and download to $DOWNLOAD_DIR.
Unfortunately, the logs do not show enough detail. After the line `about to run R CMD SHLIB -o kimisc.dll rcpp_hello_world.cpp RcppExports.cpp --debug`, a call to `gcc` is made. (I have added the output of the same call on my Linux system to the Gist.) To me, it seems that the calling process is not notified when the child process has completed, and it stops after a timeout. My hope is that this has been seen before and that there's an easy fix. I'm really new to Wine.
