Hello folks,
Here's is info on what system I'm working on.
sessionInfo()
R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13)
Platform: i686-pc-linux-gnu (32-bit)
I'm trying to install the XML package. However, I end up with the following
error message.
install.packages("XML")
....
checking for xml2-config... no
Cannot find xml2-config
ERROR: configuration failed for package ?XML?
* removing ?/home/abraham/R/i686-pc-linux-gnu-library/2.13/XML?
The downloaded packages are in
?/tmp/RtmpUsckPl/downloaded_packages?
Warning message:
In install.packages() :
installation of package 'XML' had non-zero exit status
When I run library(XML), I get that there is no package named XML.
Can anyone help diagnose the problem.
Thank You,
Abraham
