I'm not certain just what this problem is. Trying to install the "curl" package, which "tseries" wants results in the following error:
**** Package libcurl was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcurl.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'libcurl', required by 'virtual:world', not found Package libcurl was not found in the pkg-config search path. Perhaps you should add the directory containing `libcurl.pc' to the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable Package 'libcurl', required by 'virtual:world', not found Using PKG_CFLAGS= Using PKG_LIBS=-lcurl ------------------------- ANTICONF ERROR --------------------------- Configuration failed because libcurl was not found. Try installing: * deb: libcurl4-openssl-dev (Debian, Ubuntu, etc) * rpm: libcurl-devel (Fedora, CentOS, RHEL) * csw: libcurl_dev (Solaris) If libcurl is already installed, check that 'pkg-config' is in your PATH and PKG_CONFIG_PATH contains a libcurl.pc file. If pkg-config is unavailable you can set INCLUDE_DIR and LIB_DIR manually via: R CMD INSTALL --configure-vars='INCLUDE_DIR=... LIB_DIR=...' -------------------------------------------------------------------- ERROR: configuration failed for package ‘curl’ * removing ‘/home/john/R/x86_64-redhat-linux-gnu-library/3.6/curl’ Warning in install.packages : installation of package ‘curl’ had non-zero exit status **** However, libcurl is installed, installed. What does seem to missing is "libcurl.pc". The ../pkgconfig directory contains a number of different *.pc files, but not that one. I'm asking here first because someone else may have already encountered and solved this. I'm running Fedora 32 with kde on a 4 X AMD system. I just updated Fedora.
