Hello all,
I am trying to install the package Cairo on RedHat running R version 3.2.3.
So far I have tried install.packages("Cairo")
R CMD INSTALL Cairo_1.5-9.tar.gz
Both the approaches giving me the same error below.
Error : .onLoad failed in loadNamespace() for 'Cairo', details:
call: dyn.load(file, DLLpath = DLLpath, ...)
error: unable to load shared object
'/home/sandeep/R/x86_64-pc-linux-gnu-library/3.2/Cairo/libs/Cairo.so':
libpng15.so.15: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory
Error: loading failed
Execution halted
Can someone please guide me.
Thanks,
Sandeep

You probably need to do something like: sudo yum install cairo.x86_64 # Prob'ly not necessary, this package # should be already there. sudo yum install cairo-devel.x86_64 You may not need to include the ".x86.64" strings, I'm not sure. Or you may need *not* to include them! HTH. cheers, Rolf Turner -- Technical Editor ANZJS Department of Statistics University of Auckland Phone: +64-9-373-7599 ext. 88276
I tried the command below sudo yum install cairo-devel.x86_64 Package cairo-devel-1.8.8-6.el6_6.x86_64 already installed and latest version Nothing to do I have also tried installing libpng-devel Still the error persists.
