bug#49314: Stan package broken

[Kyle Andrews]

Hello,

I tried to run a "Hello World" stan model using the r-rstan package.

#+BEGIN_SRC R
stancode="data {
  int<lower=0> N;
  vector[N] x;
  vector[N] y;
}
parameters {
  real alpha;
  real beta;
  real<lower=0> sigma;
}
model {
  y ~ normal(alpha + beta * x, sigma);
}
"
stan_lm = stan(model_code = stancode)
#+END_SRC

Running that code I get the error:

#+BEGIN_EXAMPLE
Error in dyn.load(libLFile) : 
  unable to load shared object '/tmp/Rtmp1AXXXr/file1ffd36a95fa3.so':
  /gnu/store/741057r2x06zwg6zcmqmdyv51spm6n9i-gfortran-7.5.0-lib/lib/libstdc++.so.6: version `GLIBCXX_3.4.29' not found (required by /tmp/Rtmp1AXXXr/file1ffd36a95fa3.so)
Error in sink(type = "output") : invalid connection
#+END_EXAMPLE

I setup my environment with:

: guix environment --ad-hoc r-rstan r-rstanarm r

This kind of error typically occurs when something is compiled with a
newer version of GCC/glibc and then linked with an older version. Do you
happen to have a gcc or gcc-toolchain installed in your profile (and
does removing it solve this issue)?

Alternatively, you could try

  guix environment --pure --ad-hoc r-rstan r-rstanarm r bash coreutils

(Using --pure prevents packages from your profile being used.)

I've tried exercising some of the things shown at
https://github.com/stan-dev/rstan/wiki/RStan-Getting-Started in 'guix
shell r-rstan r-rstanarm r-minimal' and it seems to work.  I'm on Guix
commit 17892c5.

Closing.

Thanks for the report!
