installation issue with ubuntu 20.04 about cistopic

Hi @vjbaskar !

Could you paste the exact error you are getting (the whole output when you are trying to install it).

Thanks!

Hi @cbravo93,

It is part of my docker container that I run using Singularity in our HPC. It installs fine, no problem there. When I load the library it gives the error below.

Error: package or namespace load failed for ‘cisTopic’ in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...):
 unable to load shared object '/usr/local/lib/R/library/float/libs/float.so':
  libgfortran.so.3: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Traceback:

1. library(cisTopic)
2. tryCatch({
 .     attr(package, "LibPath") <- which.lib.loc
 .     ns <- loadNamespace(package, lib.loc)
 .     env <- attachNamespace(ns, pos = pos, deps, exclude, include.only)
 . }, error = function(e) {
 .     P <- if (!is.null(cc <- conditionCall(e))) 
 .         paste(" in", deparse(cc)[1L])
 .     else ""
 .     msg <- gettextf("package or namespace load failed for %s%s:\n %s", 
 .         sQuote(package), P, conditionMessage(e))
 .     if (logical.return) 
 .         message(paste("Error:", msg), domain = NA)
 .     else stop(msg, call. = FALSE, domain = NA)
 . })
3. tryCatchList(expr, classes, parentenv, handlers)
4. tryCatchOne(expr, names, parentenv, handlers[[1L]])
5. value[[3L]](cond)
6. stop(msg, call. = FALSE, domain = NA)

So when print its shared lib dependencies, I get this

This may as well be an error due to containerisation + singularity + R combination but I have no way of testing this independently elsewhere.

Many thanks

Hi!

Can you check if you actually have gfortran in your image (locate gfortran)?

Normally I work with a conda R environment in HPC, that does not give issues so far.

Cheers!
