and when i use sudo apt-get install yum

E: Unable to locate package yum
same problem with all software.

  Hi Meenu,
 The second error is due to the first, so don't worry about it for the
 moment. Since you are compiling, you are probably on a Linux system. Try
 this:

 su
 root password
 yum search libX11

 this will produce a list of about 6 packages
 if you are on a 32 bit system

 yum install libX11-devel.i686 libX11.i686 libX11-common.noarch

 if you are on a 64 bit system

 yum install libX11-devel.x86_64 libX11.x86_64 libX11-common.noarch

 exit

 This should get the necessary stuff. You may also have problems with
 readline. If so, let us know.

 Jim

Re: [R] R installation error

2013-05-10 Thread Paul Johnson
Meenu:

You have an elementary Linux setup and configuration problem to understand
first, before you worry about configuring and compiling your own R.  I
agree strongly that this is something that all linux users should learn to
do, but compiling R itself is like climbing Mt Everest as your first
mountain climb.

So, for whatever Linux us use, join their email support lists. Find out
more about how to install packages there. Not all Linux systems use yum
or apt, we can't help you with that.  SO learn about whatever linux you
have and find out if it separately installs packages required for compiling
programs.  It may even be you have a LInux system without sudo installed,
so learn how to install that.

After you succeed in compiling something simple, then get serious.

My course notes on this:

yum is the package manager for Red Hat family systems, like CentOS,
Fedora etc. 

You're using Ubuntu and don't need yum. You should use apt-get, or
better aptitude to install packages. 

Could you try: 

$ sudo aptitude install r-base 

in a terminal?

Best. 

E.

Hi

you will get probably better help from others but I would recommend you trying 
to install recent version of R (3.0.0 I believe)

And you will be probably asked also about your OS and what exactly you did 
during installation.
 
Regards
Petr

Why don't you use the packages from your (not mentioned) distribution?

Anyway, to build R with X11 support you will need to install X11
development packages.

[R] R installation error: perl not found

2009-11-25 Thread Cristian Opazo
Hello:

I'm trying to install R 2.10 on a Linux 64-bit machine running RHE4 using the 
R-core-2.10.0-2.el4.i386.rpm install package I downloaded from 
http://cran.opensourceresources.org/. After executing the RPM, the system looks 
for package dependencies and I get the following error message: 

Package not found
The following package could not be found in your system. Installation cannot 
continue until it is installed.
Unlocatable package: perl (File::Copy::Recursive)
Required by ('R-core', '2.10.0', '2.el4')

The strange thing is that I've updated my system to the latest RHE-blessed 
version of perl already:

[r...@bunuel bin]# perl -v
This is perl, v5.8.5 built for x86_64-linux-thread-multi
Copyright 1987-2004, Larry Wall

I tried installing the 32-bit version but ran into the same problem (no perl 
package found).

Please help... and Happy Thanksgiving to everybody!

Thanks,

Cristian
