bug#46622: r-rserve 1.8-6

r-rserve 1.8-6  should compile a binary "RServ" which would be made
available for execution similar to "R"
It think it fails because it wants to save the binary to /gnu/store
where the package "r-minimal" is installed.
It might be also that r-minimal has to be installed with "
"--enable-R-shlib"

In gn/packages/statistics.scm there is "r-with-tests". Unfortunately it is
not a public package, so I cannot install it easily

RServ is quite important: any interop with R (on multiple languages) goes
via this socket-server.

This was fixed during our conversation on #guix yesterday.  Now 
one gets the error I mentioned:

  λ R_HOME=$(guix build r-minimal) \
  	guix environment --ad-hoc r-rserve --
  	Rserve
  cannot find system Renviron
  Fatal error: unable to open the base package

I haven't looked into it.

Correct.  I patched R_HOME in Makevars.in to point to r-rserve's 
/bin directory instead.

What would that do?

Kind regards,

This is already done.  “r-minimal” inherits from “r-with-tests” and
merely *adds* one configure flag.  The “--enable-R-shlib” flag is
untouched.

I don’t think there’s a bug here.  It’s just that your value for R_HOME
is incorrect.

I have no clue how R works.

Since the reported bug was already fixed and I can start Rserve 
with Ricardo's help, I'm closing this bug.

Thanks!
