Hi Gabor,

Thanks for all your help on this, but I still can't make it work.  See below.

So I did this:

sudo R CMD INSTALL --configure-args="CC=gcc42 CXX=g++42 CPP=cpp42"  
igraph_0.5.3.tar.gz

. . .and it gets through the configure phase OK, with gcc42, g++42 and cpp42 
being specified.  Once it appears that configuration is complete it starts into 
this:


** libs
g++44 -I/usr/local/lib/R/include  -I/usr/local/include   -DUSING_R -fpic  -O2 
-fno-strict-aliasing -pipe -Wl,-rpath=/usr/local/lib/gcc44 -c DensityGrid.cpp 
-o DensityGrid.o


. . .and continues to build with gcc44.  When  I start R and try to load the 
igraph library, this is the error I get:


> library('igraph')
Error in dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...) : 
  unable to load shared library 
'/usr/local/lib/R/library/igraph/libs/igraph.so':
  /usr/local/lib/R/library/igraph/libs/igraph.so: Undefined symbol 
"_ZNKSt5ctypeIcE13_M_widen_initEv"
Error : .onLoad failed in 'loadNamespace' for 'igraph'
Error: package/namespace load failed for 'igraph'


I do appreciate all your help and quick responses, but I think I'm wasting  
your time with basic C/C++ programming stuff that I just don't know.
