It will not, and most of this is already in the README. The problem is the penchant for linux distros to break standard pieces of software into ever smaller pieces, so naming the pieces is often no great help 6 months later. On FC5/6 I think yum install mesa-libGL-devel mesa-libGLU-devel libXext-devel libpng-devel should do it. (Note that mesa-libGL-devel appears to have been already there, and libXext-devel pulls in the rest of the X11 stuff.) A quick check shows -lXext is actually not needed, so it could be removed from configure.ac and the requirements: that would make a lot more sense. > > Just a thought. > > Ranjan > > > > On Tue, 20 Feb 2007 11:59:24 -0500 Rick Bilonick <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> Summarizing: >> >> I'm running R 2.4.1 on a current FC6 32-bit system.
