Hey everyone,

Here's my problem:

I type:

using Distributions

rand(Multinomial(1,[0.25,0.25,0.25,0.25]))

I get:

ERROR: error compiling rand!: error compiling multinom_rand!: could not load module libRmath-julia: dlopen(libRmath-julia.dylib, 1): image not found

Any ideas how to fix this?

Thanks

James

Are you using a binary or a source install? I’ve had a few issues with the changed libRmath library name when working with older binary releases.

The output from versioninfo(true) will probably be useful for anyone to try to help debug this issue.

Hi John

I am using the binary v0.3.0-prerelease for Mac, so pretty up to date.

Hi James,

Because the prerelease binaries change every day, it’s kind of hard to make statements about what will work when using them. When I next have time, I’ll try to test them out with the Distributions package. (I’m on vacation for the next four days, so it may take a while.)

I'm getting the same error. I guess it is related to https://github.com/JuliaLang/Rmath/issues/3

I'm getting the same error, when calling 'rand' on a Binomial:

d = Binomial(1,tr.pi[k])

tr.z[k,:] = rand(d, N)
