R devel - Jun 2011 - Does anybody successfully built latest R on AIX 5.3?

[This email is either empty or too large to be displayed at this time]

I am trying to install
http://www.oss4aix.org/download/RPMS/gcc/gcc-4.2.4-2.aix5.3.ppc.rpm

but it dependents on package info, which I can't find a version for
AIX 5.3, can anyone who success fully built R on AIX 5.3 share which
version of gcc and the related packages to use, and where to download
them,thanks, following are the error messages:

# rpm -i ./libgcc-4.2.4-2.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
package libgcc-4.2.4-2 is already installed
# rpm -i ./gcc-4.2.4-2.aix5.3.ppc.rpm
error: failed dependencies:
        info is needed by gcc-4.2.4-2
# rpm -i ./info-4.13a-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm
error: ./info-4.13a-2.aix5.1.ppc.rpm does not appear to be a RPM package

We successfully built R on AIX 6.1 but the following instructions should 
also work for 5.3.

We mainly used the software from OSS4AIX but also from the "AIX Toolbox 
for Linux Applications" obtainable directly from IBM. Attached you'll 
find our list of installed rpms. This and the instructions provided in 
the "R Installation and Administration" manual should be all you need
to
build R on AIX systems.
