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.

Re: [R] R installation error
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.

Re: [R] R installation error
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.

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

[R] R installation error: perl not found
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!
