I assume you are doing this in a docker image. That file is not installed because our base images have "tsflags=nodocs" set in /etc/dnf/dnf.conf. Unset this before installing R-core, or, even better, install packages with --no-docs. -- Iñaki Úcar _______________________________________________ R-SIG-Fedora mailing list R-SIG-Fedora@r-project.org https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-sig-fedora
