All those "no's" listed in your output listing should be "yes" to compile R, its help files, and various compiled material required by add-on packages (or just about anything else that needs a compiler other than vanilla C). At a minimum you should have both "gfortran" and "g++" in your /usr/bin directory. You can see from your output that the configure routine looks for several different alternatives for fortran compiler and none are found. As it stands, the only compiler you seem to have enabled appears to be the basic GNU C compiler. It looks as if you might have a minimal desktop system installed, but linux is open source, which means that to fully use it, you will want various compilers for any software that comes as source you want to compile. Your alternative with R would be to install the binary, but the lack of compilers will still be a problem with many packages you may want to use in R, since they too often use at least the Fortran compiler, and I'm pretty sure I have see g++ called as well.
