I am building rkward with:

cmake -DCMAKE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX="$\{pkgdir\}/usr" \
-DR\_LIBDIR="$\{pkgdir\}/usr/lib/R/library"
make
make install

which produced correctly working rkward 0.5.5, but the version 0.5.6 won't start with:

/usr/lib/R/bin/Rcmd: line 61: /home/nik/Dokumenty/build/aur/rkward/pkg/usr/lib/kde4/libexec/rkward.frontend: Directory of file doesn't exist

Am I suppost to use diferent flags to package the rkward, or is there some error in rkward?

Hi\!

I'm surprised it worked, before. Generally, you should always pass the final directories to cmake, then use DESTDIR to install to a prefix for packaging. I.e.:

cmake -DCMAKE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX="/usr" -DR\_LIBDIR="/usr/lib/R/library"
make
make install DESTDIR="$\{pkgdir\}"

Let me know, if this does not fix the issue.

Regards
Thomas
