R: install.packages("cli") failed #126

Closed knyipab closed 3 years ago

knyipab commented 3 years ago

When installing cli 3.0.0 or above in R with install.packages("cli"), error: use of undeclared identifier 'PTHREAD_CANCEL_ASYNCHRONOUS' will show up. While Android NDK doesn't offer pthread_setcanceltype(), gcc_termux doesn't support the macro PTHREAD_CANCEL_ASYNCHRONOUS. This post (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnulib/2018-05/msg00062.html) might be relevant.

I am wondering if this is the right place to report the issue. Sorry that I am not very familiar with Termux's typical approach on incompatibilities of this kind, whether through patches, modified termux lib or perhaps package's responsibility to support Termux.

this is the right place since R is not supported by official termux-packages.

pthread_setcanceltype the bthread is something i support not termux specifically.

So i might be able to get this to work.

download the source package for cli extract it install libbthread apt install bthread What you have to do is edit the file cli/src/thread.c and add

ifdef ANDROID #include #endif

then you have to make sure the library is linked to libbthread.so so set the variable PKG_LIBS export PKG_LIBS="-lbthread"

then from command line R CMD INSTALL cli it should use the cli directory
