This is a known problem. One way to work around it is to install R and related packages from the system. We recommend that you do
$ sudo apt-get install bc binutils bzip2 cliquer curl g++ g++ gcc gcc gfan gfortran git gmp-ecm lcalc libboost-dev libbz2-dev libcliquer-dev libcurl4-openssl-dev libec-dev libecm-dev libffi-dev libflint-arb-dev libflint-dev libfreetype6-dev libgd-dev libgf2x-dev libgivaro-dev libgmp-dev libgsl-dev liblfunction-dev liblrcalc-dev liblzma-dev libm4rie-dev libmpc-dev libmpfi-dev libmpfr-dev libncurses5-dev libntl-dev libopenblas-dev libpari-dev libpcre3-dev libreadline-dev librw-dev libsqlite3-dev libsymmetrica2-dev libz-dev libzmq3-dev m4 make nauty pari-elldata pari-galdata pari-galpol pari-gp2c pari-seadata patch perl pkg-config python3 tachyon tar xz-utils yasm cmake coinor-cbc coinor-libcbc-dev libboost-dev libisl-dev libterm-readline-gnu-perl ninja-build r-base-dev to install as many packages needed by Sage on the system as possible. After that, you might need to run at least make openblas-clean ./configure and inspect its output to make sure that system R will be used, and no R built. You'd see r-3.6.2.p0: using system package; SPKG will not be installed Then run make HTH Dmitrii -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-support" group.
