You need libgfortran to build R. I assume you did a binary install on 'Linux', but without the details the R posting guide asked you for I can't tell you exactly what is missing. Properly set up binary installations have a component that brings in all the needed dependencies, e.g. RedHat ones have R and R-devel RPMs. RedHat systems have rpms for gcc-gfortran and libgfortran, but others may differ. Note that the provision might be split: the actual library is in libgfortran but the 'devel' part needed to build against it is in gcc-gfortran (at least on the version I looked at).
