Hi mailinglist, I'm probably missing something here and unnecessarily complicating things. I am trying to get R installed with just a few packages we use. One of the packages, ggplot2, has a lot of dependencies. So when I try to install R with one of the existing EasyBuild files and have ggplot2 as the dependency it will throw an error due to the dependencies of ggplot2 not being installed, and I have to add the dependencies to the .eb file. And then add the dependencies of the dependencies to the .eb file, etc etc.
When installing libraries from within R you can simply give the option "dependency=True" and it will automagically install all dependencies for you. Is there an option like that when installing R and some R libraries? Thanks, Niek
