Re: [R] Package installation problem
Hi John, This is a bit off-topic for this mailing list as your issue is a linux, specifically Fedora, issue, and not R. I don't use Fedora but I did a quick Google search on fedora missing package .pc file and that came back with a lot of hits. This one in particular should be a good place to start. It gives some explanation as to when installation will result in a .pc file (seems to relate to -dev versions). https://stackoverflow.com/questions/33050517/supply-pc-file-for-pkg-config HTH, Eric On Fri, May 29, 2020 at 8:03 AM John via R-help wrote: > > I'm not certain just what this problem is.

I wasn't sure where the hick-up was (R or Fedora). The library the error message said couldn't be found was right where it belonged. The first thing I did was check that the *devel file was in the lib64 directory, and it was. The pc file was the only vagrant, and it was not on the system at all. I'm going to try to get sense out of Fedora about this because with "devel" files it should have been. When I reinstalled this latest time from the command line, the "pc" file was placed just as it should have been. The threads on stackoverflow are four years old, so this has been around in one form or another for a while.

I'll try again." This time the *.pc file appeared where it belonged. So, thank you. Evidently, I tweaked the right thing, whatever it was, right before I gave up and wrote my request, thinking that if FC32 broke my tseries installation, it would have broken others. As usual the r-list is quicker, and much more helpful. I'll pass this along to Fedora, since there seems to be a problem of some kind. libcurl-devel was already installed on my system, the first thing I ckecked. It was just the *.pc file that was the problem.

Re: [R] Package installation problem
The library alone is not enough... you have to have the development headers for compiling code against the library.

[R] Package installation problem
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=...'

What does seem to missing is "libcurl.pc". The ../pkgconfig directory contains a number of different *.pc files, but not that one.

Re: [R] package installation problem.
Easiest answer would be to update to a more recent version of R: I'm not sure binaries are available for 2.10.z anymore.

R-2.10.x is no longer supported, but binaries that were built years ago for that version of R are still available on CRAN mirrors. The mirror selected is just not working, hence use another mirror. The other message shows that the CRAN extras repository does not provide binaries for such outdated versions of R. Anyway, upgrading is highly recommended.
