Yes. I've got the R-core, and R-devel packages both installed and updated. Also have tcl and tcl-devel installed and updated and also fontconfig-devel.
For some reason, though the reason that Rcmdr fails to compile and be stored in the library is because its dependencies fail to compile and be loaded: 1: In doTryCatch(return(expr), name, parentenv, handler) : unable to load shared library '/usr/lib/R/modules//R_X11.so': /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1: undefined symbol: FT_Select_Size 2: In install.packages("Rcmdr", dependencies = TRUE) : installation of package 'aplpack' had non-zero exit status 3: In install.packages("Rcmdr", dependencies = TRUE) : installation of package 'relimp' had non-zero exit status 4: In install.packages("Rcmdr", dependencies = TRUE) : installation of package 'rgl' had non-zero exit status 5: In install.packages("Rcmdr", dependencies = TRUE) : installation of package 'RODBC' had non-zero exit status 6: In install.packages("Rcmdr", dependencies = TRUE) : installation of package 'Rcmdr' had non-zero exit status The packages aplpack, relimp, rgl, RODBC, are all dependencies that somehow are not compiling and being stored in the library directory. Also, references to /usr/lib/libfontconfig.so.1, : undefined symbol: FT_Select_Size. No idea what this is or how to fix it. But it is the reason that R_X11.so is not being loaded. There's obviously something missing that I need to compile and install Rcmdr.
