R installation Problem

[sridhar28]

Dear Users,

I am trying to install R package(R-3.0.1) in my Linux Machine Redhat(6.0)
After unzip and giving command ./configure.. it run for sometime and finally i got

R is now configured for x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu

Source directory: .
Installation directory: /usr/local

C compiler: gcc -std=gnu99 -g -O2
Fortran 77 compiler: g77 -g -O2

C++ compiler: g++ -g -O2
Fortran 90/95 compiler: g77 -g -O2
Obj-C compiler:

Recommended packages: yes

configure: WARNING: you cannot build info or HTML versions of the R manuals
configure: WARNING: you cannot build PDF versions of the R manuals
configure: WARNING: you cannot build PDF versions of vignettes and help pages

Then i gave command as "make" as mentioned in the R installation manual.
i got out put as

Invalid declaration of or reference to symbol `tiny' at (^) [initially seen at (^)]
make[4]: *** [dlamch.o] Error 1
make[4]: Leaving directory `/illumina/data/galaxy/apps/R-3.0.1/src/modules/lapack'

i tried with the epel repository to install R package
i installed the epel for redhat linux.
and gave command as
"yum install R"
i started installation and gave Error as

Error: Package: R-core-3.0.1-2.el6.x86_64 (epel)
Requires: libjpeg.so.62(LIBJPEG_6.2)(64bit)
Error: Package: R-core-devel-3.0.1-2.el6.x86_64 (epel)
Requires: texinfo-tex
You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
You could try running: rpm -Va --nofiles --nodigest

Then i tried to install the missing library
yum install libjpeg.so.62
it gave output as

Loaded plugins: refresh-packagekit
Setting up Install Process
Package libjpeg-6b-46.el6.i686 already installed and latest version
Nothing to do

Please suggest on the same, It would be a great help for me..

Thanks

You must install 'gfortran' package, then ./configure, then make. I had the same problem and it worked for me. I got it from here:

http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/R-3-0-1-g77-errors-td4676434.html

BTW, I also needed to have installed a Java JDK (openjdk-6-jdk worked fine for me) for make to end with no errors.

Good luck,

Javier.
