Dear all, the statistics package R (www.r-project.org) was available for CentOS-4, but I need it for CentOS-5 (64bit). RPMforge has R-2.5.1 for CentOS-4, so I thought I'd try to install that on CentOS-5. However, yum complains about missing ggv, and the specfile indeed says that R requires ggv, which is not in CentOS-5 (it has kghostview). I could probably install with "rpm -Uvh --nodeps", but the question is rather: has anybody built R for CentOS-5 ? thanks for any insight, Kay
