and what have you packages, sent me a minimal patch to let littler build when

ld
linker uses the --as-needed
option (as
Ubuntu builds now do): all it took was a little reordering of arguments.
With that, I did a little cleanup as it has been a while since
version 0.1.3.
The brief (upstream) ChangeLog
is as follows:
2011-09-15 Dirk Eddelbuettel * configure.in: Mark as release 0.1.4 * Makefile.am: Applied patch by Mathias Klose to prevent FTBFS with 'ld --as-needed', cf LP bug 770980. * littler.c: A few small tweaks suggested by 'gcc -Wall' * examples/install2.r: Added a second R package installer example * examples/update.r: Switch to '/usr/bin/r -t' as shebang line * examples/fsizes.r: Dito * littler.c: Update copyrights to 2011 * README: Idem
littler provides r
(pronounced littler), a shebang / scripting / quick eval / pipelining
front-end to the the R language and data analysis environment.
As usual, our code is available via our svn archive or from tarballs off my littler page and the local directory here. A fresh package is in Debian’s incoming queue and will hit mirrors shortly.
