Compilation failed for an R add-on package

[lobby2]

Hi all, I am trying to compile on the Debian Shell a package which contains C++ code that some other R packages call into. Actuatty, this package is a collection of C++ classes for Bayesian computation.
I run the command:

R CMD INSTALL

but this throws me the following error:

Models/HMM/Clickstream/Session.cpp:13:21: error: no matching function for call to ‘BOOM::TimeSeries<BOOM::Clickstream::Event>::TimeSeries(const std::vector<BOOM::Ptr<BOOM::Clickstream::Event>, std::allocator<BOOM::Ptr<BOOM::Clickstream::Event> > >&, bool)’

I am not able to get around the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

What is the name of the package you're trying to install? (Yes, it's clearly something to do with time-series, but specifically, which time-series package?)

Hi rewyllys, thanks for your reply.

The name of the package is Boom, retrieved from there: https://sites.google.com/site/stevet...venlscott/boom
