I tried downloading the pre-built binaries of R from this website and then
installing the rpms but is seems they depend on so many other packages to be
installed first. I tried simply the R package first:
warning: R-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID
217521f6
error: Failed dependencies:
R-devel = 2.11.0-1.el5 is needed by R-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
libRmath-devel = 2.11.0-1.el5 is needed by R-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
Then when I tried to install those packages there were more dependencies:
warning: R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY,
key ID 217521f6
error: Failed dependencies:
R-core = 2.11.0-1.el5 is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
bzip2-devel is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
gcc-gfortran is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
libX11-devel is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
pcre-devel is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
pkgconfig is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
tcl-devel is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
tetex-latex is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
tk-devel is needed by R-devel-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
So I thought perhaps R-core would have everything needed to install and run
R but still:
warning: R-core-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64.rpm: Header V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key
ID 217521f6
error: Failed dependencies:
libgfortran.so.1()(64bit) is needed by R-core-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
perl(File::Copy::Recursive) is needed by R-core-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
tetex-latex is needed by R-core-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
xdg-utils is needed by R-core-2.11.0-1.el5.x86_64
Is there any way I can get an RPM that has all the necessary packages built
in to install and run R? Or do I have to find all these packages that are
needed to install these 'R' rpms for which many are not found on the
FedoraProject website (libgfortran, gcc-fortran....). Also which 'R' rpm
would I use to simply run R on the linux machine, would it be R-core?
Thanks
